Surfing. Attempt number 2. @ 1:39 pm
So last month was my birthday, and James and I were driving 2 hours to stay in a little town so I can take him surfing for his first time. We took my car because it's a better luggage/surfboard carrier than his truck
VS.
I was waaaay too pumped, because I haven't been surfing in about 4 months (thanks to friends claiming they love surfing but never actually wanting to go) that I was up at 5 a.m. getting ready for this trip..
about a hour into the drive, we hit this...
...Ok so before I wrote that, I thought I still had the picture of what we hit. well, it was a f-ing SNOW STORM. 6 inches of snow on a highway that can't even fit one car on it. Plus, has ANYONE ever driven a Mazda Protege 5!? It's like a casket on wheels! A skiff of snow will send you off a cliff pumpiting to your death. We turned around. I'm 20, I'm too young to die. Yes?
ANYWAYS, We're attemping the birthday trip a month late tomorrow morning. Please wish us luck, I may gouge out my own eyes if I still don't get to surf.
