I grew up surfing in the Gulf of Mexico, where any ride longer than about 50 feet was long :) I got so spoiled surfing those 18 months, I got to the point where I didn't look forward to the "get the wetsuit and rinse water bottles in the car, put the board on the car, drive 20 minutes, walk to surf, surf, walk back, rinse off, put the board on the car, drive back 20 minutes, put the board away, rinse down the wetsuit, hang it out to dry" and then eat :)
I haven't been surfing since I left in 2017 and I'm tempted to take a week's vacation in San Diego just to surf :)
I know what U mean ! I actually bought a Toyota van just for the beach so it's always ready and I don't have to unload.. well I do to give a shake rinse etc ., but than it goes right back , I don't do water in winter so no wetsuit, it's cold enough in the summer ! If u come out let me know , I can get hook ups at hotels !
No I won't be in Florida full-time/ I'm keeping my house here in San Diego/ I have children here and special-needs daughter and this house is conducive for her lifestyle, Plan a trip I'll probably be gone you can stay here while I'm gone for free. See if you and your wife can plan a trip
Thanks for the invite! I don't believe I'll be out there any sooner than 2023, and more like 2024. I'd love to go surfing with you! I have almost always surfed alone, so it would be nice to be out in the water with someone! I tried to get my wife to learn to surf, but she just isn't a "water person" :)

By the time I make it to San Diego for a surf week, you'll be living in FL :)
