Lost Boys & Co... A lways a good feeling to warm those frigid toesies at the fireside.  Be certain there is a responsible adult present to make sure you don't get too enthusiastic.  As we sat here, we found ourselves pondering just how Vienna sausages were discovered... S ome light overcast early on with 15 miles visibility, breaking into partly cloudy conditions.  Wind was up from the start, 1.9kts at checkout and the sea surface was lightly chopped.  The air temp was 62.5° and the water at the buoy was 63.9°.  However, the guards at Hermosa posted a 69° and that seemed a bit more realistic.  Low tide at 8:42am +1.8' and high tide will follow at 3:51pm +5.4'.  We have a SSW swell out of 209°, creeping into our window of opportunity.  It's reading 2.6' and we'll call it 1' to 2' and poor.

Lost Boys & Co... O kay, we don't know exactly how to explain this...  So we'll let the Professor tell us in his own words:  "Gabbitus mowwing das mustachioed, durante les borracho in sus cups.  Plan, wait no plan, was to looking like one Salvador Dalinius and don't NOT NEVER do this post dancing-drtinking-thinking etc.  Idea: yes.  Bad: yes.  #1 Don't eve4 try to blow outten a flare..."

Lost Boys & Co...   A n incredible sunset this evening and people were pouring out of the restaurants and bars to snap a few pics, before the next round.  In the end the folks were just as interesting as the brilliant display the sun put on.  You know guys, you just have to get out more often... H ump day dawned with about 15 miles visibility under partly cloudy skies.  Winds were onshore at 4.1kts and the sea surface was a bit rippled, heading to a light chop.  The air temperature was 61.9° and the water was 66.0°, up 3° in as many days.  High tide was at 10:27am +4.0' and low tide is at 3:12pm +2.1'.  We have a SSW swell from 200° at 2.3', translating into one footers on the beach.  Good for paddling, SUP-ing, canoeing and water skiing.  Not so red-hot for surfing...

Lost Boys & Co... W e sincerely hope you can open this movie app.  The pig was roasting slowly - people were hungry - we needed to take extreme measures.  "Danger Boy!  Turn on the heat vision!"  5 seconds later the piggy was served...

Lost Boys & Co... I n some parts of the world, they're actually having summer and people are out frolicking in the sun, getting tan and in some cases getting the backs of their bikini tops branded into their very flesh.  Allison Burke sports this solar tatt after a day on the dock at Lake Payette... B ut no, we're here and it's raining.  Yes, it's July 12th and it's raining.  It tried spitting all day and finally when the temps hit the dew-point, it just decided to give in and actually rain.  Visibility was 2 miles this morning and skies were cloudy.  Winds were offshore at checkout by 5.1kts and the sea surface was smooth.  The air temp was a deceptive 67.6° but the water was seriously chilly at 63.5°.  High tide was at 6:18am +2.9' and low tide will follow at 10:30am +2.3'.   We have a weak SW swell out of 216° and it's 2.6' at the buoy and 2' on the shore.  Nothing in store for the next few days... A ssisting in your weekend plans......
