"I'm sick to death of people saying we've made eleven albums that all sound exactly the same.  In fact we've made twelve albums that all sound exactly the same."
Angus Young
Thanks Angus, love your work.  Now we'll roll back to 1973 (#1) and celebrate our first album "Scream Door."  Clockwise from top left, Boomfwappa Miller, Barry Santos, LoLa & JRS.  They slapped the "Parental Advisory" label because someone screamed "damn!" 

Hazy sun this morning and 12 miles visibility.  Winds were variable off to on around 3kts.  Got tacked up around 8:30.  The air temperature was 68.0º and the water is 71.2º at the buoy, but there were spots much warmer than that in the surfline.  High tide at 10:28am +3.9' and low tide is at 2:58pm +2.4'.  It's a pulsing SSW swell out of 195º at 3.9' and it was 3' to 4'.  For about an half an hour, Doc & the Professor got some fine little zippers. 

The "Lost Boys" are fading into our collective memories, but a few are still about and here (#2) The Professor, TJ & Deacon Jim share some memories at Joe Houston's 80th birthday party.  Meanwhile we hobnobbed with a couple of legends (#3).  You'll remember Frank Asaro (center), a stellar beach volleyball player and Body Glove Team Member.  (Right) "Big Daddy", Steve Brodhead, still a regular contributor to the Surf & Culture Report... 

We'll be in the wilds of Idaho and McCall's Lake Payette, which is pretty wild in some ways.  Report might be a bit sporadic...

Pecking Order Thursday Surf & Culture Report

Lost Boys & Co... W hat we have here (above) is Doc drawing our attention to a hapless paddler who, first, jumped in by the tower and is now somewhere near 4th St.  He then proceeded to get caught in a rip, pushed into an outside set that tested his leash and his resolve. He managed to get back in to shore, but needed a few minutes to gather himself... J umbled conditions from the winds last night and they're predicted to blow again today and this evening.  Currently its anywhere from 6 to 20kts and the sea surface is chopped up.  The air was chilly this morning at 47.5 º  and the water is 62.4 º , but that might drop with these winds.  Low tide at 6:46am +2.1' and high tide follows at 112:17pm +4.2'.  It's a blustery west swell out of 268 º  at 6.6' and it looks like about 4' to 7' with the wind knocking down some of the peaks.  Swell looks strong though and if the winds change it could be good... H ere we have Doc on his soap box preaching t...

Gays Of Hormuz Surf & Culture Report

Lost Boys & Co... T ired of hearing about the Straights of Hormuz... C loudy, gray (#1) and on shore winds 3 to 7kts.  The sea surface is a bit tacked.  The air temperature is 58.0 º  and the water has risen to 60.1 º  in an heroic attempt to lure us back into the sea.  One low tide at 10:31am +1.0'.  It's a 2.3' west swell out of 270 º  and it's an inconsistent 2' to 3' on some of the new sand bars.
