Old Habit: New Location

On location at Westhaven State Park in Westport, Washington, I'm officially toast. I've just got nothing left to give.

The sun is out, the waves are still crashing and I'm typing up a blog in Chuck, our Westy. I just had a Seattle-based surfer, Melinda, take my photo as evidence I actually donned my wetsuit and brought my surfboard to beach.

You'll have to take my word when I say I caught the first wave I paddled into and that it was my first wave in about four years.

Then the waves started crashing in three different directions and I could hardly get through the white water and shore break. Being out of shape, I got worked and had to hang it up.

But I'll be back - very soon.
