Well, it’s was quite a weekend at the local beaches.
Saturday, it was warm enough to actually trunk it for a short body boarding session at Cayucos Pier. Sunday, I donned the wetsuit for a morning surf session at Pismo before returning to the beaches later in the day for a family outing at Avila.
I say this not because you need to know about my weekend. But rather, as a way to ease into a confession:
I screwed up last week.
Specifically, I noted that “Bustin’ Down the Door,” a new surf film, was going to play at the Fremont Theatre in San Luis Obispo. Which, in fact, is true. I also mentioned that ex-surf champ Shaun Tomson was going to attend a screening of the movie, which is also true.
Notice all the true stuff I reported!
But then I said Tomson was going to be at the Fremont Friday, which, in fact, was not true.
I know, I know – booo, hssss.
So there’s good news and bad. If you actually went to the movie Friday, expecting to see Shaun Tompson, then, well, that was bad. Sorry about that.
But here’s the GOOD news: If you didn’t go Friday and would like to see Tomson, it’s not too late. Because he’ll be here Tuesday night.
To get you ready, here’s some video of Tomson charging it on his 50th birthday a couple of years ago.
