Dreaming of Sunny Days

I have no problem surfing in cold water when my 4:3 full-suit, booties and hood is enough to keep me warm.  But if I still get the shivers surfing, even after putting on all this gear, it's time to head to warmer weather!  I wish it was that easy to just leave all my responsibilities aside to go on another surf trip.  If that was the case-- I'd already be on a plane to Mainland Mexico where the water is about 80 degrees, the sun is beaming and the margaritas are flowing.

For now, I'll just have to dream of sunny days and warmer waters. I hope my dreams come true soon!

I got the blahs... (My Blah Poem)

Blah, blah, blah, blah
sometimes I feel like I'm melting into the sofa,
it's a sofa vortex, sucking me down and sapping my will to do anything cool.
Like paddling, or cleaning, or shopping
instead I will wrap myself into a blanket
and dream of better (warmer) days.

My first custom stand up board: Stamps 9'3... wow.

It came just in time for Christmas... well almost. My new hand-shaped stand up board shaped by Seal Beach master, Tim Stamps. I picked it up after my trip down to mainland Mexico and right off the bat I was able to paddle it out and give it a go at the DogPatch. In short, I'm stoked on it! Check it out:

Naughty or Nice

I guess I was a good girl this past year because I just received a late Christmas gift from Santa. Stay tuned for upcoming photos. Santa shaped it just right.
