Two epic water sports today!
In the morning, I went with Raiden to Lavender Lineup, a surfing community to expand access to LGBTQ+ and BIPOC surfers. A little cheating since I am in neither community, but I drove Raiden, who is! It was an absolute BLAST. Waves were about 2 feet high, I was on a soft-top longboard, and I was catching waves left and right. The leaders were around giving people tips, and I have learned that I 1. paddle too early, and 2. popup WAY too late. About 1.5/2 hours surfing in a wetsuit, and by the time I got out I still had ice cubes for toes, but it was beach day weather, so I warmed up pretty fast.
Then, I booked it home to hop on Pinchy for an adventure to Peddocks. They were planning to spend the night (along with the other Savin Hill fams and their kiddos), but Kathy and Rick on Muddler were coming back at night. It was a beautiful warm day to hang out on the beach, get a final harbor swim in, and sit by a bonfire, then a full moon to light our way home!
