Just cancelled my camping reservation for the coming week in a state park. Forecast is for a series of weak weather disturbances over New England and into the Gulf of Maine. Looks to be an extended window of surf opportunities on 2’-5’ waves for the week ahead.
Given the choice, I take the waves and the adrenaline rush anytime, at the expense of a $15 cancellation fee for my camping reservation. So, the challenge is to pace myself and select the appropriate ride for a particular day – waveski, surf kayak or longboat? Good problem!
Mahalo (for having options and opportunities in the “go-go” years)!!!
Yup, It’s inevitable. I try to keep the “sense of urgency” and, yes, giddiness tamped down and to enjoy these moments. But, the “flip side” is coming at some point.
We had some disturbing weather in Algonquin park…trees down…noted that its obvious some ignore weather…if i get a hint of bad weather i would cancel too… 1 of our parks was destroyed tge other week…Samuel de Champlain prov park is gone!
Yeah, all those years of work, kids, chores and trying to squeeze in some lone time for a surf paddle, a fishing trip, a hike… usually at the expense of sleep…
