Deception

Sometimes all the elements align...right wind, strong swell, sunny, blue sky, puffy clouds...but like a beautiful but bitchy woman, or handsome but assholey man...looks can be deceiving; you cannot always judge a book by its cover...yesterday, October 21 was one such day.  Paddled out only to be ragdolled and thumped around, abused and frustrated...caught one ride that didn't close out on me...oh, there were rideable, makeable waves...I just wasn't on them...herewith lies the evidence of beauty and the beast behind the mask...pretty, huh? do not be deceived...
