October Close, notes from The Watt

Peeling 'em off, 10/27

   Bringing in the close of October, Thursday past and we could not have ordered up a better evening.  Warm 70 degree winds across the beach, 63F water that keeps the feet bare, avoidin' the layer of rubber that deadens the feel of the deck, no gloves...sweet.   Building waist high frontsides rollin' in three at a time....stoked.  Surfed till post-dusk. The Target couldn't even pick up the last glide into ankle high shorebreak.  Dark.  Niiiice.

Holiday break.

 











 
   Post session Wing Quest brought us back to Pickles on 8th to catch Game 6 of the Series.  Short and simple, disappointing.  We ordered the BBQ and the Hot...well done (last time a bit under cooked).  Neither tasted that good.  The Hot, not so hot.  The BBQ...thin sauce, odd taste.  Still one of the better establishments in terms of beer offerings, service, and atmosphere.  Wings...a weak pop fly....didn't even make it outta the infield. The Search...
goes on...

 




 


 
   Final note,  as I had mentioned earlier, nice calm night with light SW breeze.  Same when we sat down at Pickles.  At tab time- rain, cold, high winds.  Like "that's it boys, pack it in and head on out for the winter!" We've got one weeknight session left before Standard Time.  Could get interesting...may need to pull out the boots.  Maybe.
