Day 138 - Quake Weather

There is something about the tropical flow that we have going on. I assume that is what is going on, it is just that the air seems warmer than normal, the sunset was out-of-control and the water feels like a bathtub. I got out after work for a few and a few is what I got. It was really good at the start, probably shoulder high +, but it seems that the tide swamped it and I sat out there by myself shooting my board in the air over and over because there were no waves into the close of the tropical day. I still caught about 5 or 6 to the beach from the outside before whistle blew, still super fun.

Earthquake in mex today, it was probably 350 miles away, but our building still shook enough to cause my co-worker Diana to run for the exit. Trust me, I wasn't far behind her. I'm not a tough guy when it comes to the 20th floor weeble wobbles.

Anyway, my other co-worker (Tanya) told me the other day that it is easy to loop stuff in Garage Band (Apple Software), so I looped some stuff together and put some video to it that my dad shot of Doheny on that big Saturday. Amazing, looping that stuff took about 30 minutes, front to back and I had never used the software before. Talk about democratization through technology. Mind you, I don't have a musical bone in my body.

You won't see Doheny like this very often, I never have. It is almost always tiny, with good shape. This was the right swell however.
