Late to the party

Postby qball » Mon Oct 10, 2011 1:14 pm

So I just got around to reading Surfer's Journal 20.2, I think it was. This probably came up months ago, but is the person who wrote the article about returning to surfing while in Oregon on this board? It was a nice piece, probably describing me in three years.

Yeah it has been a while. but hey the ocean keeps calling for me and I had to eventually answer her call. Took me a long while to figure out that because of my surgery I was not going to be able to push myself out in the water without forcing myself to do a lot of hard work.
