As much as I like those strong dark ales, been grooving on the Hop Harvest Ales after all its Fall. Mostly IPAs brewed within hours of the hops being picked. Belmont Station, now on Stark, has 4 or 5 of them on tap right now. http://www.oregonsurf.com/phpBB2/viewto ... 136#143136
I thought I was losing interest in surfing, but as of late seeing the numbers and directions and LC cam change I'm realizing that I was just bummed about summer. Now I wake up early with surfing as the first thought on my mind and then I can't go back to sleep even if I can't go out. I feel restless and love it. I love the gray and darkness and beaches that are crowdless. I love Oregon in the fall.

Missing a monster buck last year on the last day of the season, and knowing he is still out there.

And most of the leaves from that big tree landed in my neighbor's yard.
