Memorial Day at The Shores - stingray-ed surfers and swimmers = 60!
Here's a photo of my friend's foot
He's working on a great case of staph -
[BA sez: "Dude P**l - go to the doc!"]
Here's what P**l had to say about the experience:
"Bill,
This is why I like surfing at Shores, at least with the early morning crew.
Tuesday morning I got zapped by a stingray, without a doubt the worst, and longest lasting, pain I have ever known.
I could hardly get to my car, definitely approached my pain threshold.
This guy hears my whimpering and comes over to help me out.
This guy, his name is Louie, has a five gallon jug of warm water to soak my foot and gives me a couple of Advil.
If this had happened at Turmo or OB the locals there would have taken advantage and stripped my car.
See ya."

I had a very interesting surfing experience yesterday morning - just kinda made me think about the fine line between life and death -
But
Enough of that!
Great surf over the weekend and into today -
The swell switched from south to north yesterday -
North wind swell - south wind - I wonder where it was good today?
