4/14/09--Mona 5.9

Just in case anyone wondered it did blow down there on Tuesday. Gary C. and I got there at 10:30 and were on the water by 11:00. He on his 6.0 and me on my 5.9. After about an hour and a half of fair to good 6.0 wind it cranked up quite a bit. But by the time Gary got a smaller board out it was dieing. He schlogged 1/2 way out and had to swim back in. But we did get some exercise and it wasn't that cold. Then it rained like crazy. On Weds. I rode 18' of new snow at Brighton. It was a little wet and thick at first but got lighter and dryer later in the day as temps. dropped. We close on the 19th. and after a week or so of household chores, I hope to be on my way to Mojave for a while. If I don't see you at Brewvies it means I'm still down there. Come on down. Peace and Love. Tom W.
