Comments:
Met up with Alley Oop and the Ryncon Ryders for a get together by the shack and fire pit. A small crowd out enjoying the low tide waves as they shoaled onto a sandy bottom.

Stayed out later than everyone else, got some really fun waves in the dark, just a hint of reflection of gray contrast off the lip line, sections impossible to predict except by feel alone. A great time, warm water, totally intuitive surfing.
