Summer’s really over.

I like being able to look at game footage to see what I’m doing right and wrong in the water. I’ve also had a run of being in the water watching other people—kids, amateurs, experts—bodysurfing. Every wave’s a lesson. #stoke #bodysurfing

Latest beach acquisition.

chicks and ducks and geese better scurry

Got a flu shot. Then PB. Was scheduled for COVID boost and flu shot but out of stock where I went so it’ll have to wait. As I left I chatted about ocean conditions with an elderly tourist couple from AZ who asked me about The Mighty Pacific. I wish I’d done some Harris electioneering on those nice Zonies!

During this morning’s session I caught @quantumprimordial taking off on a wave!

As I left the OB a musician was playing “Hey Joe”

Played with the surfers at Tourmaline today and got inadvertently capped by @dronedudeed

I’ve been riding waves a while. Sometimes I can find @surfline footage of rides through @dawnpatrol.app … and I’ve been learning to use @procreate Dreams to animate overlays on the rides. For now they’re in Instagram Stories though I intend to put them on websites I have better control over too. Always more to learn and improve in and out of the water.

Quick late afternoon sesh
-
Got up before dawn, walked 5 miles, saw dolphin, sea lion, fish, lobster carcasses, the Mushroom House, walked on rocks, broke a flip flop, rode waves at Blacks and Shores, scavenged 6 kinds of washed-up eyewear, caught many waves, watched my cousin catch many waves, and stayed out too long.

We’re in the last of the aggro parking lot summer evenings.

NO SWIMMING. Says the San Diegi Municipal Code. Surf zone enforcement will end when summer ends. I operate a middle way. I can play in swim zone or surf zone as long as I’m not a jerk.

Looking east. Looking west. Crystal Pier.

A week in Portland. No waves. Back now. Waves meh. Glad I got out. K & G came too.

The Pillar of Signatude at Powell’s Books, which has a layer of plexiglass over it lest someone deface it, includes two signatures of writers without whose work I would be an entirely different human being. Thank you, William Gibson and Douglas Adams (RIP) for documenting what is absurd, essential, and eternal about the world. Plus rayguns and robots.
