My job has been very demanding lately, and I had to work much of the weekend. When I got home late this afternoon after spending hours in a windowless room on a sunny Sunday, Scott said, "I know you've been stressed lately, so why don't we head to the beach so you can surf, and I'll go for a walk?" Ah, he does get me.
There was a strong sideshore breeze at the Jetty, the waves were only waist-high+ and the tide was low, but I felt much better as soon as the first drops of seawater splashed my face. A left was holding up a short shoulder and I was able to link it into a reform a couple of times to the inside, plus I caught a bunch of other short ones with the peak all to myself. Thanks, I needed that!
Surfline: WNW to NW wind and groundswell mix combined with some modest SSW groundswell today. Good breaks pulled in chest-head high+ surf while standout exposures produced 2-3'+ overhead sets.

Onyer Scott! (That's 'Strine (Aussie slang) for 'you're a good bloke')
