6 days straight (is that really a streak?)

I didn't surf very much this summer. My last posting was in June after a trip to Mexico with Travis and I have been surfing about once a week or less since then. I surfed 10/30 and 10/31, skipped 11/1 then surfed Wednesday (11/2) through Monday (11/7). Tuesday was too small to even bother and today (Wednesday) was stormy and small. I just went to work. Monday was the best day surfing I have had in a long time. Even though the surf was small, the lefts were staying open at the north end of the Cliffs, my timing was coming back and my legs were feeling better. The first few days in the water my legs felt like lead. When I did manage to catch a wave, I couldn't manage a bottom turn and was unable to move my board around in the water. Many days I don't spend more than 30 minutes in the water, but the therapeutic effects last all day. I always feel better when I surf and need to make more of an effort to get in the water every day.

Tuesday I went down to the beach with my board. I stopped at the Cliffs and at 17th street, but the surf was rediculously small. Often when it looks bad from shore it is still decent, but this was beyond flat so I went to work. Wednesday was similar but stormy to boot. Wednesday and Thursday night it rained. It looked like the rain has cleared off, so Monday I'll be back in the water. Stormsurf is predicting 2-3 on Monday, so there should be something to ride.
