Since the summer ended the sun goes down earlier. The lifeguards go off duty earlier. When they do, they remind folks about safety, they remind folks that alcohol and smoking are not allowed on the beach, and that “if you experience a water-related emergency to dial 911 and ask for lifeguards, we have a 24 hour service.” And tonight: they wished a new married couple to the north of the lifeguard tower “congratulations.” #sandiego#lifeguards@lifeguardsofsandiego
I went to OB for “The Meeting of the Mats” put on by @lowerpowered & @yuccafins — I bought a surf mat from @packrattrecords before the summer. I struggled with the thing this morning but I have mucho positive vibes for inflatable surf mats. My earliest memory of being in the surf is on top of a canvas mat next to my dad just south of Crystal Pier. I was probably 3 or 4 and it was my pop setting me up to ride waves. Lots of fun and super fun feelings this morning around several dozen mat riders#surfmat#stoke#surf

I found these in the sand but I don’t think they’re me.

Parking lots at the beach are a bit emptier each passing day. Very close to wetsuit times.

I listened to so much music and so much talk radio on that device. It also had an audio out jack allowing me to record radio shows onto a separate recorder. Mono only, of course. I had an extra long mono earplug I could attach to it and listen in one ear as I fell asleep. I was 12. This was in Gretna, Louisiana. Across the Mississippi from New Orleans.

T-Street. Met a fellow handplaning bodysurfer this morning. So blessed. Whatever that word means to you. It’s good though.
