Did not see it??

This reminds me of two weeks after I was diagnosed and still really strong I went to the Mentawai Islands and spent two weeks on a beautiful boat with 10 other surfers. We were Italian, American, Aussie and all with very different personalities. We sure did not agree on everything but in the water on big surf days we were a tribe and we looked out for one another. I fondly remember the fun times and the drama and the ultimate supportive group we became. I know we don't all agree on this site but when one of us goes missing it' just ain't fittin' as Mammy on Gone With the Wind said.

Wow I can only imagine such a surf trip of a lifetime. I still live in Cabo (Baja) 5 months /year and surf with friends on the Eastcape point breaks with dear friends. They are generous and tolerant of my kookie ways and encourage me. But I must now stay on the beach on the truly big days. No regrets. Just the fondest of memories. (Now kite-surfing ! that rocks!)

in reply to MateoBeach

We have a place in Todos Santos, and like you, we live in Baja 5 months per year and then OR coast rest of the year. I used to love surfing Shipwrecks. I just don't have the upper body strength any longer and holding my breath on long hold downs worries me. Still love being down here in the winter.

Our condo is on the beach in San Jose del Cabo, Zona Hotelera just in front of La Comer. Called Tortuga Bay (#2303) I will be back there February 9th for 3 weeks. My wife and I like to either kite or surf at La Fortuna, Destiladeros, the "G-spot", or sometimes 9 Palms in waist to head-high drops. Shipwrecks requires a bigger South swell, mostly Summer. I'll send a private message. It would be nice to meet. -Paul

I know some of those breaks! I caught some really memorable rights at Shipwrecks ~25 years ago. Nowadays when we go to Cabo we stay at the Cabo Surf Hotel. I love catching party waves with my wife and teenage boys at Old Mans. I’d like to be in the loop if you guys ever plan a Cabo meetup!

I'm back for a while..

It's been tough but we are working on 'stuff'....

what a journey..

in reply to Bluebird11

Got to keep on working on life and bettering ourselves . So , you have just uplifted me now . Thank you . Great to speak to the Bluebird again . We are enchanted with our local pinyon jays that live in the pinyon pine next to our porch . So much personality they have . It’s a crazy world indeed right now . Human kindness can solve it all . There just seems to be a shortage of that right now . The integrity of mankind in general has not improved or worsened since they hung Christ . 2020 yrs and still Hatred exist in the human hearts . I hope that you are receiving and giving love always . 🙏❤️

Yes we are receiving and giving love always! I always say if Christ came back today, they'd probably try to kill him again. His message is love that keeps this planet going. Love makes the world go round. People do seem to have hatred, though I do people are GOOD.. I just feel programmed, stressed with no great inspirational leadership to help humanity feel hopeful. We are in an interesting time. Those of us here have an added burden to keep that love going amidst the difficulty we are are dealing with. There is such an instability in the world. We need to carry our torches higher than every and keep being there for each other. Much love... and I'm so happy that I could help uplift you. You deserve it. You are truly one of the bright lights of the world. xxxoooxxx May your deeper yearnings be fulfilled....

in reply to Bluebird11

No doubt. You touch my heart . Thank you . I am loved at home also . My yearning fulfilled with God’s Gift of love to me my wife... My own mother was damaged as a child and unable to show a mother’s love to her husband and his four sons . Me being the youngest I became the closest to her . She taught me as a child to pray to god , and ive never stopped . It took 53 yrs and me dxed with this vicious APC to finally find true love . I was a lone wolf bachelor and didn’t want to marry after seeing moms treatment of dad .I cut myself out of family and love by my bad thinking. My belief is in Jesus to save a sinner like me. True belief in Christ has no fear of death . That’s a beautiful thing. In my weakened physical and cognitive status I still find love for this world . Even in evil times .? We must find the good. My Mormon friend Timmy has suffered more than any human that I know personally and endured due to his faith teaching him that by facing suffering with love of life , he will be rewarded in the next life. He has no fear of death . I’m happy that you are you .. in the worst of times I’ve met the best of people . Goodnight 💤
