Monochrome Monday (excuses)

Excuses.

We can all dig up a million of them.

Surf's too flat.

Too crowded.

Too choppy.

Too sharky.

Too hungover / ripped/ unfit.

And doing nothing gets easier.
And easier.
Until watching others becomes the norm.

Was a bit like that yesterday.

Bit shabby.

But we both made a BIG effort.

Got out and about.

Ended up shooting some keepers.

Eating some great food.

And running into old fiends.

Stoked.

Happy Birthdays

Today's post is for my twin surf buddies who hit abig birthday ending in zero. Surf on Tony and Bill!!!

Whatta way to go

 Today's post tips the trucker's cap to Seasick Steve who reminds us that NOW is the time and TODAY is the day.

"Twenty five years working for the state

Saved all your money, got a good rate

Always thinking 'bout that pension plan

The day of retirement, the promised land, well

Got a finish off that swimming pool

Get some umbrellas, don't wanna be cool

Remember to take them fishing trips

You never had time for, this is it"

"The day of retirement have finally come

Get a gold watch and your work is done

One month later your heart give out

What was all that planning about?

What a way to go

What a way to go

What a way to go

What a way to go

Well, they finally lay you in the ground

Your wife and the children standing around

Now they got that pension plan

Rather have you, don't you know it, man"
