Tempest Tossed Tuesday Surf & Culture Report
Lost Boys & Co...
Well, not exactly tempestuous, but it's what passes for a tempest in these parts. We woke up to thunder and lightning and a bit of light rain falling on the lanai. Meanwhile, Lawrence Moch, was heading down the bike path and caught this view from "Industrials" looking north to a bit of darkness. Looks like Purpus is on his way to catch a few sliders between the rain drops...
Three miles visibility under cloudy skies, raining from time-to-time, heavy to light. Winds out of the WNW variable to 10kts, with a light chop in most places. The air temperature isn't exactly cold at 62.3° and the water is downright temperate at 65.7°. High tide is at 7:57am +5.2' and low tide will be at 2:12pm +1.1'. The buoy is reading a SSW swell out of 206°, 2.6'. We're calling the resulting soupiness 1' to 2', looking like it's trying to become a real swell. Maybe tomorrow...
We get mail...

Congratulations and Aloha! Paul said you two were the hit of the party. I am stuck in Hawaii for a couple of weeks. Went snorkeling today and the water has to be 87.. I love it. Still have not surfed at home since back operation. Will probably wait till it is really cold.

(STUCK in Hawaii? We should be so stuck... Ed.)
Finally, we found ourselves on the outskirts of Kernville, after apparently, walking right through the in-skirts. We hit upon the ritzy part of town (where there were mostly double-wides) and discovered this little paradise. You know it's deluxe if they spell corner with a "K." Kinda like "Kwality." They had some of these little fellas out front rearranging the gravel. But they weren't uber serious about it and took their time to have a pipe now and again.
