  Some long rides today. And I saw a seagull eat a stolen half bagel just beyond the breakers.

  Chatted with a surfer today. He remarked that this (PB & Crystal Pier) was different from Tourmaline which was different from Windansea. He asked if I only bodysurf. “Yes.” I asked how long he’d been surfing. “Two weeks!” He said “It’s the best. There’s nothing else like it.” Truly.

  “STAND UP FOR YOUR PRINCIPLES AND BE LOYAL TO YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY” reads a cheeky art paste-up graffito. A quote from Nick Offerman, perhaps? And a lovely 2016 @alynnpaint mural from her “seasons of change” series affixed to the same building. And a crab pal I met. Magical sights I will try not to take for granted in Pacific Beach.

  “That was sick” one surfer said to me. The lone bodysurfer out with the surfers. And another thanked me for not dropping in on him at the end of his wave: “you coulda gone”—“plenty of waves today” I replied.

  After a drought of bodysurfing was able to catch some waves today. Almost over this cold I got.

  Extraordinary day at PB. Started on the south side of the pier, rode waves; pushed north by current; rode more waves; repeat.

  My breakfast had a lot less sand in it. Good morning out there.
