My friend showed me a thread that a guy had started going on Facebook a couple days ago and I honestly forget his name or I would give him due credit(leave a message below if you like and I’ll approve it). A few people I know, along with a few I’ve heard of, and some I have never met yet. It was basically about crowding in the New England area. Just a little venting between friends and obviously nothing wrong with that at all. I even found a few comments super funny. One that made me laugh most was a person I’ve never met(yet have a picture he took of me as my background photo on FB at the moment) Brian Nevins to Everybody’s good friend Ralph Fratello basically(and I’m translating without approval or affirmation of my translation, but I bet I’m close) saying “we love you Ralph, and yes the waves were very fun. Now can you let us chat?” lol. Here is simply my take on what I read:

I must have been in the same lot with yourself and everybody else involved in that thread. After assessing the conditions and noting other factors such as over amped out of towners(myself included), a couple cordial gentlemen and people who couldn’t even put together a “hello”. I decided THAT was not the scene nor wave style I wanted get into. I drove away quietly to go find one of the many other options around. I wound up surfing with a good friend and a few nice kids and I’m pretty sure we all had a great time.

Here’s what I snuck off to, and maybe due to karma(maybe not) I got some fun waves with some cool people and even luckier yet Jon Walsh just so happened to have his lens pointed towards me on this gem.
I hope everyone got some fun waves recently and remembered to have fun. That’s what I went to the beach to do. You too, right? IT’S SO EASY TO BE COOL, and it usually makes everything more fun. So remember. When a parking spot is full, sometimes it’s a sign to park somewhere else. _!!!/
