whompers!

swim report from the end of the world: fri. 10am, shores, lftc, claudia & ralph.. we all arrived at the shores early to watch the cliffs and cove, giant surf pounding the caves and cove, i mean really freaking big! not 7' surf but 10, 12, 15 foot stuff. at one point i watched a breaking wave eat the 1/4 at snack time. boomers was enormous and breaking so far out that it wasn't really boomers at all. don't forget about scripps! waves were breaking near the end of the pier, we knew because we were in line with the end of the pier and the waves were too scary to  swim further thataway. dammit. surfers were too inside to catch these bad boys, after that set, they swarmed out. anyway, we swam! tower to marine room back towards the pier but waves, you know. turned back and did that whole thing again. it was so fun and the waves easy south of the tower, we just walked on in to 58 degrees and sun! very clear too. we raced to the cove after our swim to check out the wave action, surfers were out, surfing dontcha know, jimmy and a few others out too. the guards had a physical barrier at the tops of the stairs saying run! run for your lives! too bad because i was so tempted! things peak tonight and slowly go down late saturday. go check it out people!
