Lost Boys & Co.

  Lost Boys & Co... W hy are these men laughing?  Well, they just heard that you aren't coming to Samba tonight for happy hour.  THEY know how well Mark pours a drink.  THEY know how savory the food is.  THEY know where to go for a good time...  Maybe you'll change your mind...  5:30 on the patio... O vercast this morning and 5 miles visibility.  A chill wind was blowing from the SE/South at 3.9kts and the sea surface was smooth.  The air temp was 63.0 but felt chillier and the water is 65.1 and the whole thing needed some sunshine.  Low tide was at 9:24am +0.7' and high tide follows at 4:28pm +4.7'.  There's a SSW swell out of 210º at 3.0' and it was about that with a few bigger outsides.  Supposed to get sunnier and a tad bigger mañana... T he Professor and Jonathan Goldsmith have had a good-natured relationship for years.  It's only been recently that they have been less than cordial to each other.  It probab...

  Lost Boys & Co... W e have no idea what's happening in Thebes, but Friday's happy hour is going to be at Samba .  5:30 for all of your happy hour needs... W hy are these men laughing?  They have no idea what's happening in Thebes either.  Two of them don't know where Thebes is.  One of them doesn't give a shit... C loudy early, breaking up mid-morning and turning quite nice.  9 miles visibility through the warm haze.  Winds out of the SE by 5.6kts and the sea surface was smooth.  The air temp is 63.3 and the water is 64.6 and it's about time it gained  a couple more degrees for July 4th.  Low tide is at 8:30am +0.1' and high tide will follow at 3:30pm +4.6'.  We have a SSW swell out of 200º at 3.0' and it was 2' to 3' with some nice lefts if you just happened to be in the right spot, like the Professor and Boomfwappa (#2) after disporting themselves in the Hermosa breakers.  Supposed to be a tad bigger mañana, so get waxe...

  Lost Boys & Co... H appy Birthday! to Donna Paine.  On her special day she was lucky enough to have Alex Martinez jump out of a burrito at Brothers.  Okay, it was a special order...  Extra hot sauce... S ome fun ones this morning!  A bit gray to start the day, but clearing about 9:30.  Visibility was about 7 miles.  Winds were out of the SE at 3.3kts and the sea surface was smooth.  The air was 63.7 and the water is 63.5 and needs some summer love.  Low tide was at 7:38am -0.4' and high tide will be at 2:30pm +4.4'.  We have SW swell out of 220º at 3.9' and it was 3' to 4' with some nice coasters.  They were popping on the outside a bit farther and bigger than they looked initially.  Morgan got one of the best noserides we've seen this year and we're more than halfway through... J oey Anderson has been doing some stellar drone work lately.  He's got some great aerial shots of local beach landmarks, but this one of a ...

  Lost Boys & Co... W hile Buck is touring Slovenia, playing accordion in all the great Slav Halls, his bus patiently waits for his return.  We're all excited to see when it finally hits the road.  Apparently the only way you can score a "Redondo" license plate is to get it in Utah... 10 miles visibility under clear and cloudless skies.  Winds wee light onshore at 1.9kts and the sea surface was smooth.  The air temperature was 61.3 and the water has dipped to 63.9.  Low tide was at 6:00am -1.4' and high tide will be at 12:37pm +4.4'.  We have a SW swell out of 220º at 3.3' and it was a fun 3' to 4', with some shapely lefts, as Jetski will attest.  He caught a zipper from Scotty's Bubbles to the pier and had the savages on the beach rioting... S peaking of shapely waves, #2 features Big Wave Dave with a rather well shaped wave.  We wondered about his sudden interest in body surfing... F inally, we have a rather long-range, out-of-focus sh...

  Lost Boys & Co... A ll that rain this winter brought the morning glories out in profusion this spring.  As we took a closer look, we realized it appeared that they were lit from within!  If this would only work at night, it could change gardening forever... O vercast this morning and 3 miles visibility.  Winds were light onshore by 3.6kts and the sea surface was smooth.  The air temp was 64.0 and the water has dipped to 63.3.  High tide was at 10:03am +4.2' and low tide will follow at 2:59pm +1.5'.  We have a SSW swell at a steep 203º at 3.0' and it was 1' to 2' and poor at most spots. D id you know that you could get soy sauce in 5 gallon buckets?  Neither did we.  This is a real game changer... H appy Hour at 5:30pm this evening at Laurel Tavern, home of Hermosa's best French dip.  That's a sandwich, not a person.  Always fun!  See you there... Pi c #3 was taken a couple of Wednesday's ago at the El Segundo Art Walk and...

  Lost Boys & Co... W e're going through our mail and before we can throw away this one piece of junk mail we notice it has a 1973 VW bus on the cover.  Then we give it a closer look and hell, that's our bus!   Okay, so it's like they're advertising lifestyle and it just happens to be ours...  They have no idea what they're getting into... A tad foggy again this morning with a half a mile visibility, not breaking up until the mid-afternoon.  Winds were on early at 3.0kts and the sea surface was a smooth roll.  As long as it stays so hot inland we're sure to get some marine layer and onshore winds.  The air temperature was 61.5 and the water was 64.2.  High tide was at 8:16am +3.9' and low tide will be at 1:23pm +1.4'.  We have a SSW swell out of 199º at 4.3' and it was 3' to almost ear-high with some nice drops and rather shapely corners... O utside Rockwall, Texas, there's this candle shop probably run by a hippie holdout who moved to T...

  Lost Boys & Co... W ell, if a building (#1) can live in infamy this might be one of the best candidates we know.  The Texas Book Depository's sixth floor window was the perch from which Lee Harvey Oswald shot President Kennedy.  A rather stolid structure, in the Romanesque-Revival style, it is burned into the minds of most Baby-Boomers who remember exactly where they were when they heard the news that Kennedy had been shot... S ummer starts tonight at 9:24pm and we'll be at the party.  This morning skies were foggy and visibility was around one mile.  Winds were light onshore by 2.6kts and the sea surface had a light roll to it.  The air temperature was 61.5 and the water was 65.8.  High tide was at 7:16am +3.7' and low tide was at 12:34pm +1.3'.  We have a 3.3' SSW swell out of 193º and it was 3' to 4' in the water (unless you were one of the guys out there learning who estimated it was 7' to 9', the kids in class were kind to them...)
