10 things I learned from surfing alone

1.When you camp on the beach sand gets everywhere, not going to explain this one.

2.When you feed a one legged seagull all his friends show up expecting a meal too. I think they do this on purpose because they know I'll feel bad for the guy with one leg, so they send him in first to warm me up.

3. I'm not nearly as good at surfing as I'd like to think I am and saltwater tastes pretty bad after you've had to eat it like 20 times in a row.

4. The beach is much more fun with friends, (throwing a Frisbee is hard by yourself)

5. Escapism doesn't work. Even when you try and run away from your problems they follow you there.

6.Surf boards make surprisingly good beds

7.Lots of weird people use public showers at beaches, they're not for the faint of heart.

8. Tides like to steal things, like camp chairs for instance.

9. It's hard to swim with a camp chair in your hands.

10. Rolling waves, good music, and a beautiful sunrise can't fix a broken heart, but sometimes it helps a little.
