The Summertime, When the Livin’s Easy

Author: Surfs-Up February 23, 2010

After graduating from college last spring, I spent the summer lounging by the beach and mentally preparing myself for the “real world.” While much of each day was spend loafing around and sipping drinks, I also made a personal commitment to learn how to surf. Since I was a newbie, I searched around for used surfboards to save some of my much needed graduation cash.

Although I didn’t take any formal lessons, some of the locals were nice enough to give me some pointers. By the end of the summer I was no where near adept on the board, but I could adequately ride mid-sized waves. While I probably won’t get to put my surfing skills to use anytime soon, it was nice to at least do one thing that was somewhat productive over the summer.
