I came home from work and took a nap - long enough to get from tired to groggy, but I woke up with enough time to get a session in. Marlon and I hit WPB with an hour of light left. The sun is definitely heading south as the summer is drawing to a close (still a month or so before the equinox). The swell was belly to chest high. The tide was low - maybe 0.6' - so I brought the TJ Everyday. I checked the tide charts earlier today - weird because the moon is a waxing gibbous so you think there would be two smaller peaks, but it seemed like there was only a single very large peak. More like a full moon tide. The wind was there, but it wasn't strong enough to mess with the texture too much - and definitely not strong enough to drive a wing (which is a good thing because I didn't bring one, or the board to use it with).
I caught a handful of really long waves. Marlon was catching a bunch also. The crowd was pretty dense - seems like everyone was getting their last waves before the "stay at home" order goes into effect (tonight at midnight).
Back on the beach, there was a monk seal hanging out. It definitely knows it has free reign of the place. Seems like every time I surf, I jump back to the foils but switch it all up - if this holds true (why wouldn't it - I control it), I'll be using the Go Foil again....
