Beach on the north side of Patrick Point

Long sand beach with rocks and shells and dunes and...perfect for the
girls to explore!

The second alien!

On the trail back...

Small (baby?) mole on the trail. I was corrected on this by my wise sister, apparently some kind of shrew!

Sunset at Patrick Point

View

Another increadible day. Surfed for about six hours in two separate
sessions, both exceptional for different reasons. Put down my book to
call Tzahi and saw five or six whales spout a couple of times as they
headed north. Absolutely fantastic. Headed down to Patrick Point,
walking trail from the campsite, as additional recon for when Amy and
the girls are here next time.

Still some fun ones

Headed north to catch Kevin and surf Half Moon Bay jetty this
afternoon. Then back to camp for another long rest...

Post surf

It's gotten a little smaller with the tide, but still holding 4-6' on
sets from the south. Earlier with low tide WNW was making it in better
and consistently head high to 2' overhead. I can't remember the last
time I surf steamer lane with 10 people out! If it weren't for the
normal crowds, presumably all surfed out from 10 foot plus surf since
Wednesday, this may make my top 5 surf spots...

Waiting for the sunset

But reading Stephen King...so the dark might be a little spooky!

Roughing it at Costanoa
