Surf Report - April 9, 2003
===================================================================
surfshot.com sez - (my comments in bold italics):
Breaking at the outside, in front of the shack.- This is the most dangerous place to surf at Windan "The Shack Attack" - The sea urchins are thick, the fire coral is in full bloom, and the Rats are in full attack mode.
Steep drop and peeling for the right side with a workable wall just after that. - Almost like "Acid Drop"
The lefts are fading fast, - you will too, if you try to surf "The Lefts." the same hollow ACID drop and you also can find some barrels at the inside.
Glassy. - if you're from Lake Michigan.
Waves size: Waist high - if you're wasted.
Sets size: Shoulder high - if you're a hunch back.
Sets Interval: 7-8 min. - Actually 7 -8 years.
Surfers Out: 13 guys - same guys as yesterday + Rodney Dangerfield.
Wind: Calm offshore - Tell the RATS to calm down.
Weather: Clear skies

What I say:
Not much time today - surfed O-Side again - not the above Secret Spot!
Waves were good again - a south and northwest swell - this is almost an exact copy of yesterday.
This has been a great Spring - almost as good as last year - I just hope I don't break a couple of ribs like I did last Spring.
Another Santa Ana - again - how rare are Santa Ana winds in April?
Way RARE!
Later,
BA

Opps Forgot Some Stuff:
Thought I'd better add some disclaimers:
* All of the tales I'm spinning are based upon facts of some sort.
* Most of the tales will be at least 50% factual.
I'm doing this web thing for a few reasons, and it is, and will be, "a work in progress" for a while:
1. It's an easy way for me to organize my "autobiography" so my kids will know a bit more about me.
2. I find this computer and internet stuff fascinating.
3. I was lucky to be able to start surfing - at least in my opinion - in the "Golden Age" of surfing - I do have some yarns to spin regarding those times.
4. This is an efficient way for some of the old guys to touch bases again - I've received a few e-mails from old (err, long-time) friends I've haven't seen in forty years or so - I think that's way cool.
5. I'm still surfing almost every day - and, at least in my opinion - that's a pretty "boss" thing to write about.
6. I think it will be nice, in a couple of years, to maybe look back at how good - or bad - the surf was in any given stretch of time.
