Orange County Beach Closure- I Can't Even Get Wet- A Total Wipe Out
So on Tuesday I go to the local surf shop and walk out with a thermal 4/3 wet-suit, a hoodie, booties, gloves, and a bar of wax. My thinking was I was going to walk down to the beach every day and get wet. I was looking forward to paddling out, sitting in the line-up, waiting for some outside sets, charging it, do some riding, and perhaps get wiped out a few times.
Yep, this was going to be my replacement for not being able to go to El Centro everyday being stuck here in the USA.
The days of trolling around ground zero looking for a young lassie to ride, taking her to the room, and either be ridden, or rode, or both, with the "wipe out" being when I come has ended.
On Wednesday they shut the beaches down, and the lifeguards are out policing the beach keeping people off the sand and the Surfer's out of the water.
I'm totally hosed now not being able to ride anything! I hope this all ends soon.
