To answer the treade title: not me. Haven’t posted on here in forever either. But I had to come back and find this quote:

because, ummm, actually we did. So I can now fully endorse this shameless plug. If anyone else is looking to buy or sell in the Boston area, get in touch with this guy.

Bought a house yesterday on a hill overlooking Nantasket beach, and couldn’t be more stoked about the process and the outcome. Gonna be moving in early next week and then the ocean will be the first thing I see when I open my eyes every day. In other words, it certainly seems like our decision to move up here last winter is paying off (Though I do miss the surf in jersey at times). This afternoon looks promising for waves, so hopefully will report back here tomorrow more in the propere spirit of the tread.

 

That's awesome, welcome to the region. Today looked great but couldn't get out there. I'm sure the former SI kook from the south shore would have described it as being DOH.

 

Surfed a spot tucked away from the wind this morning. Couple of local notables in the water filming. Ton of current and a lot of work for a little reward. Only had one real good ride the rest were duds. Wore my 5mil for the first time but was wishing I was in my 4/3. Was hot and paddling in a 5mil sucks more and more the older I get.

 

Went north of the city today and man, I wish I went yesterday. So much wind, although at least it was offshore I guess? Just a chilly time with occasionally outsized sets but whatever, it's surfing so I had fun.

 

Did a lot of surfing this weekend. So enjoyable to still be in trunk and a rashy.
Off shore all weekend with a waist high consistent wave. Surfed near a spot where they had sky divers constantly landing on the beach in Santa suites no less. The thing about offshore winds is all the delicious smells wafting to the break makes you hungry.

 

Today was def. my last session in my 3m boots. Type to deploy the 5mm Xcels for the rest of the winter.

 

Grrrrr! i don't know how you guys do it... I know why though!

 

PJ , last weekend , think that was Sun.

 

Number 2 son paddles out last week in flatness to film the sun coming up . Its less than a foot and he is filming with his go pro as he is stroking down the beach . He catches a rouge set , drops it and in clear crystal water its gone . Yesterday a buddys gal finds it in Monmouth Beach which is 6 miles from where we live .

 

had a business trip all last week, flight delayed on way back - stuck in ATL. waves were coming thru but it was raining. i had a half day of errands to run back in town before i got back to the house. I had to time my session perfectly - i work in logistics, so it'd be a fail if i didn't. rain let off for 2 hrs, maybe less, and i got in it for that late afternoon sess. Immediately took a rip to the dome, put on wetsuite, grabbed board and got into my "shining hour of enlightment". Caught a buncha rides carving in and out close by the pier, all to chest to head hi. was a buncha surf shop guys around, and talked to the one of the owners on the way out - he was frothing like i was. That was the best of the best of the wknd, saturday and sunday sessions were smaller but still sumtin. It was good to be back; Mississippi is what i remember it as

 

winds again kinda sucked but at least there were a few gems yesterday (NJ). Took some beatings trying to get a line set with the wind holding the drop until the critical stage. The good was that when you made the drop there was some of the widest shacks i have had in sometime. Had to spot check yesterday too, some spots were deep and mushy and others were shallow af with awsome tubes.

 

Thanks bud! We are happy to have you and it was a pleasure working with you guys. Nothing beats seeing the wave from your house!!

 

I love this thread the most, its what brought me here.

Ive surfed with betty and a few others from this place so Im lucky.

I mis talk story but this place has been good to me and I've learned a little about myself.

Glass raised in honor of all you dudes and one for your dad peejay!

 

Cheers, brothers... and sister!
