Rhody road trip. Red
sky morning. Wells to Boston to Newport. Old school navigation, no web cams or
surfing maps…discover on my own. Ruggles.
Messy onshore high tide mess; still glorious.
Drive east. Beach breaks and sideshore. Further up the beach, away from
the hordes…offshore but windy windy windy. Blurry, burning eyes. Stinging spray, stinging sand. Coupla rides before
windy blowout. Back in the car. Over the
bridge. Narragansett. Pt. Judith Victory-at-Sea. Around the corner to south facing…offshore,
clean and crowded. Too late in day…turn
north for home.
Later in week the ocean soothes…somewhat. Moody kids scrambling for peaks. The swell smooths…stays for the remainder of
the week…cleaner and cleaner each day but staying up for days more. Long Sands.
Shorties. Clamdiggers. River. Sunday to Sunday swell. 7 days of Sandy.
Playing…while others weep, pray, watch their worlds
destroyed…Prayers and thoughts for those less fortunate. Every swell, every storm, brings Beast with
Beauty…
