Made it out and back without the assistance of the Coast Guard and didn't end up in the e.r. - so I guess this was a good session. Still sitting in the channel.  I was very conservative today.  One did come my way - didn't fully com

Local history
Does anyone have any suggestions about local places to learn about surf history of the area, besides the museum in Santa Cruz? Or is that it?

bag it, bags
choke on your bitter pills, old man. yeah, surfing's been slimed by greed and crass commercialism. this is not news, and i know dozens of guys under 30 with a better attitude towards the lifestyle than you appear to exhibit. you paint with a broad brush, you wind up obscuring a lot of things as a result, mostly to your own eyes. if you can't hack it in the lineup, start considering spending more time in a golf cart. i also know guys 70+ who haven't thrown the towel in and still charge and hang with a lineup of people all ages, and have a positive attitude. the only lost causes are bitter old men like you.

One of the Few
Being part of the over 50 set w/40+ years in the water I want to tell the under 30 set to just quit NOW. You have no clue what Surfing is about,or anything about it`s history.The world of Surfing has been slimed by money. The "pros" are a bunch of butt-waggeling shit for brains egomaniacs, along w/ the wannabees & groupies that pollute our waters.But the jokes` on you. We were there when it mattered. Alone{3 guys} at Lowers. 10 guys at Rincon,a few friends out at Impossibles,10 guys at Pakalas`. We are the History of Surfing, You are just History.
