A few more smiles

After a miserable long wait I finally got both sun and waves today. As luck would have it, it was the day after they poured slurry on the street tops out front. Waiting as long as I could, (well, until I spotted someone else driving in the pristine blacktop) I raced down to Old Man's and paddled out in the little inside peak on the left. It was marshmallow soft, which could describe my conditioning at the moment, so we were a good match. I got more than a few head high waves that put a smile on my face, something I have been sorely lacking, I could tell, because my smiling muscles and paddling muscles were also out of shape. I do hope that this trend continues because I can use a few more waves and a few more smiles.
