Bill Recap

So anyone who doubted me actually gettin' pictures of bill was exactly correct. I'm not sure how but my camera battery went completely dead before I got to even use it, but reality was I only made one small attempt to use it around mid day, so I didn't get any pics but there all over the internet so....

But it was that good I got to the beach a little late (around 2pm) because I made a pit stop at the surf expo first only to find nobody there the place was dead, the only people there we're the ones looking for cheesy beach towels and the latest sun tan lotions. So I got out of there and headed to the beach quick... got there to find average 8 to occasional 10 foot swells clean long lines with a nice offshore breeze. Surfed all day till the sun went down all in all it was a really good day....
Execpt for the brief time when I lost my truck keys to the ocean and wasn't sure how I was gettin' home or even into my drunk I was gunna be the weird crusty shirtless dude in the wet trunks asking at the bar that night if I couldn't figure something out. I don't know how but with out giving out to many important details scott was able to unlock my door, that meant I had a towel and dry clothes and money and all that stuff. I also had my phone and as my luck would have it my buddy don was heading over to the other side of the state first thing the next morning, so claire brought him the spare key and he arrived in the morning with it so it all worked out in the end... it's almost like I never lost my key at all.

So the moral of this story is if your going in the ocean don't relly on that little string on the inside of your boardshorts to hold your key and if your wearing those fancy rvca boardshorts don't put anything in your pocket as a matter of fact don't wear those at all I guess there not meant to withstand real waves, I think there actually made for hipsters that want to pretend they surf. Thats how I lost my key the pocket on the shorts ripped wide open when I was surfing couseing the key to fall out. When U.B.C. finnally gets around to making boardshorts I guarentee they will be able to withstand huricane swells.

Sorry about no pics I grabbed this one of Ryan Clappers facebook page he's gettin some good pics lately. Also theres some good one on gulster.com too. I aslo got a couple from that night at Lou's Blue's Bar on my phone... check out the bass players guitar
