Well, we finally pried Slim away from Girls Scout camp long enough to get him a surf sesh. Unfortunately, the waves on this day were just slightly bigger than, say, six boxes of Thin Mint cookies . Fortunately, Slim ditched the shortboard and went long, which helped him get some waves.
That’s him above in what will undoubtedly become a framed photo, which his wife won’t let him hang in the living room, so it will likely wind up either in A.) the garage or B.) the extra bathroom. But, hey, whatever, right? As long as the guy can remind himself what the Stoke was like.
Slim wasn’t the only one catching waves, of course. Boss here is just a natural for the
camera. In fact, the guy’s like a magnetic force. When the camera is running, the dude just happens to gravitate toward it. And here’s a nice-looking example of that.
Boss had another nice shot in there as well. But since Slim doesn’t get in the water as much — you know, what with his CPR classes and all — let’s look at one more shot of him trimming. 
You know, it’s amazing how one little frame can make a ride look so much better than it actually was.
This looks like a perfect San-O wave, doesn’t it? Speaking of San-O, Slim was originally going to head down South with Boss and I, but he had to go and get his fourth new job in a year, and he wasn’t able to tell the new bosses, “Hey, but I’ve got this surf trip planned with my bra’hs. Is it okay if I have the third week of September off?”
Priorities, man! Sure, sure, you want to impress the bosses. And, yeah, they’re paying you and yadda, yadda. We’re talking surf trip, man! Tell The Man you got plans. Because when it comes down to it, ah, you know. Ummm.
What was I saying? Something about cartoons, I think.
Cartoons are funny.
