I believe in the healing power of salt water



I slept on the beach hoping it would clear my head
but my dreams were filled with images
that would have given Hieronymus Bosch pause


garden of earthly delight

I awoke to find a decent swell and a outgoing tide


I had no choice but to paddle out
and hope that 
the surf
would clear my mind


I paddled outside
and was suddenly swept out to sea
among humongous waves



My only chance was to catch a wave and try to make it back to land
fortunately I was on a mat!

snagged  one of the larger ones and surfed for hours continuously sliding toward what I hoped would be the shore and safety.

When I finally reached shore I found myself, suprisingly enough,back home in SoCal.

A six day travel log with the payoff of a Dallas Bobby Ewing dream sequence. You have jumped the shark.
