Comments:
Craig, a fellow graduate student in my department, was pretty amped about skipping work this morning. His positive attitude was infectious, so I tagged along. Unfortunately, it didn't translate into any waves.

Thick and mushy ankle to knee-high waves mostly pushing right up onto the rip-rap. We saw one rideable wave up at Stables, but in the end didn't paddle out.
