  Quote of the Day: From Oliver Willis Been a while since I quoted Mr. Willis, but Nothing The Right Freaks Out About Is Real None Of It. No, Not Even That. You can show a dyed-in-the-wool conservative news reports and government fact sheets that prove, for instance, that the story surrounding “Obama phones” was made up by the right to cast aspersions...

  12 to 15 foot waves at Pipes. Brief post-work session. Sunset was 5:01pm and better daily.

  Big waves expose grander shells than usual. This one i found today after my session. My art supplies are mostly still boxed. I expect to falsify that statement soon.

  What’s the cliché from the Academy Awards? “It’s an honor just to be nominated” — incredibly powerful water. None really very rideable for me unless you count bouncing around in flotsam like a stray buoy. I witnessed one surfer riding a huge fast wave in front of me. I did get past the monster breakers. The exhilaration and the view of the shore as I get raised 15-20 feet by a passing wave will always be a favorite. No photos taken; every ounce of my concentration and effort was swimming and staying safe. Know your limits.

  Back to it as the first big 2023 swell wanes. The rain has subsided for now.
