Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice." - Anton Chekhov

Ramp dancers in the dark as a steady stream of headlights illuminates the scene.  A light dispatch of misty fog and abbreviated SW winds.  Early temp of 52F and variable clearing skies above.  A new NW swell trending large and in charge drives the masses.  Tides are up with little down and a frenzy of activity is taking place on both land and sea.  The patient and composed slider will still accumulate stoke while others are here to find it fast, secure it and move on.

CHANNEL:  New mix and old trix with sandbars finding alignment and security.  Spread peaks have alternatives and benefits if you are willing and able to investigate.  Plenty of seawall activity for those just looking as surges pulse, press and soak with regularity.  Most manner of sled will find something tailored to its liking and stable tides will allow for continuity through the day.

PATCH:  Backdrop steep S swell being overtaken by contemporary NW swell.  Overriding the protective reef and flowing freely upon middling tides.  A bit warbled and wonky with so much water in motion but the radiating pulses fuel desires and dreams at times.

"I'm suspicious of people who don't like dogs, but I trust a dog when it doesn't like a person." - Bill Murray

The sun is sleeping in as Karl awakens us with Friday morning salutations.  A welcoming variance in weather pattern, cozy and calm.  Enjoy the serene as we commence the weekend.  54 degree chill, while wearing layers until the sun warms us in the afternoon.  Welcome back white fingers.

CHANNEL:  Old NW swell mix lingers this morning with small SW swell resulting in knee and thigh slip and slides.  As the sun beams through the gray vapor, open spaces for log transportation are a plenty.  Pick your favorite spot and suit up.  Use caution when navigating your way over the boat ramp as there is virtual no tidal swing today.

PATCH:  What's that I feel?  A slight throat tickle, maybe a sore throat, cough, cough.  Almost as though a cold is coming on, cough, cough.  So happy to have sick days to use, as the only remedy to cure my sickness is with a salt water, thigh high rinse.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets." - Hakuri Murakami

Dawn and dusk show the greatest light with colors only viewed within your imagination.  Truly special hours to be savored and cherished as life hustles you from place to place.  Today starts cool, clear and beautiful and from a high perch one can find a view to watch the sun crest hills.  Swells stay activated and winds stay placid so shake off any slumber and recalculate your destination to the coast.  Tides continue to be full with no swings and it feels like summer all over again.

CHANNEL:  Sand shifts and drifts to renew deeper bars and fill in all the cracks.  NW swell backs off slowly and like Jah still provides.  Let you eyes be the guide as other bars have been modified and need personal evaluations.  Size down but form holds.  Thigh to waist high is a fair and accurate description.

PATCH:  That's why I go to the Out Zone.  There I can ride on a love wave alone.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"Wisdom is the reward you get for a lifetime of listening when you'd have preferred to talk." - Doug Larson

Variations on a recently consistent theme which has us showing lively Fall swells interspersed with summer weather.  We begin at the beginning with 58F, clear skies and ceased winds.  Tides seek to level out with nothing too high and nothing too low - just how Baby Bear likes it.  Seekers and wall peekers all have their own interpretation but the factors and the equation yields a positive result.  Hop on in and hump along.

CHANNEL:  Lessening long period NW swell still has the legs to live out the day.  Having much W within its claims has invigorated the rights though the bars are not ideally aligned.  The push generates interest and momentum and there are no reluctant participants this day. 

PATCH:  Newly forming SW swell now takes its turn as the NW recedes into the background.  With tides full of positivity, the potential remains indefinite and slack winds keep it silken smooth.  Unfamiliar angles have breakers appearing and rearing with deep drops but abridged lengths.  Enough for everyone to find a favorite and go home with a smile.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"I don't know where I'm going from here, but I can promise it won't be boring." - David Bowie

Star lite sunrise through peaks and valleys as the sun generates energy in which we recharge, rejoice and drink in.  With eyes and hearts wide open, we greet the early bright, excited and fortunate.  A glowing 64 as air temps promise to deliver new highs, continuing our Indian Summer. Combination of wetsuits and swimsuits are top choice for today's fashion.

CHANNEL:  Solid, long-period NW/WNW swell on the radar for all eyes to see.  S swell peaks for select spots but mainly misses in most areas.  Disorganized and dumpy on waist high sets with blinding sun makes catching waves challenging.  Use caution as the churning tide helps keep the approach and disembark difficult.

PATCH:  The playground is open to all kids of all ages.  Many shoots, ladders and slides to be played on.  Know your grade level, it doesn't matter if you are a lefty or a righty.  Just remember, to take turns and don't pick on the Kindergartners.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"Most of what we call management consists in making it difficult for people to get their work done. " - Peter Drucker

Sun greets us with rays of warmth and a glare in the eye. Patches of fog linger holding in the mysteries of the night before. Keep your head up, and don't fall back asleep, the day is beginning now. Winding roads and chirping toads keep us on our feet and whip us into shape. There is something happening in the water, something happening alright.  Best or worst we know not, so come on down and find out.

CHANNEL:  Bright reflections deter us combined with lack of water. Not much happening here, water flip flops and rolls over itself in a weak attempt to form. Watch out for later, maybe it will learn to shape by noon.

PATCH: Here ye here ye, here is the place to be. Dodge the slosh and slop for better rides ranging from knee to waist high. No trouble finding rides here. Go way out, or stay near the shore. Be aware of your surroundings and find your ride. Storminess is starting to fade so come and find out where you'll do best.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, others make it happen." - Michael Jordan

Baby bobcat and hoot owl remind us that we exist in nature's playground - tread lightly please.  NW swell resolving into manageable partitions while something from the S evolves in the background.  Clear and crisp at 47F and no winds in the early hours.  Sun burnished hills already in progress.  Tide swings less of a contentious factor but higher than normal and tricky at times.  Rapidly filling parking options have few prime openings left.  The weekend culminates in a crescendo today. 

CHANNEL:  Weakened but still robust swell allowing for other sandbars to actualize with Seadrift finding acceptance.  Inner Groin bar still operational though down a few clicks in size to below waist high.  Outer Channel breakers mis-shapen into portions as this bar needs more sand and some grooming.  Still enough force to get some shorter boards moving but more length will equal more slides today.

PATCH:  Foundational formations with a sturdy substructure is still yielding mostly rights with some size but less length.  The exclusive lefts can be found if a search is engaged and have better form but less frequency.  Enough water to keep it real all day and a steady stream of Log-jammers and Urban Achievers is heading this direction currently.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"The smallest deed is better than the greatest intention." - John Burroughs

Swell still booms and seawall looms so double check it before you wreck it.  Welcome to the intersection of 1st and 1st - commonly known as the nexus of the universe.  Crystal prophesies are fulfilled and ALL your friends and neighbors are here already.  NW swell still large and easing but will hold court through the weekend.  Lots of background noise with tidal swings that can both groom or ruin, so understand all the levels.  Chilled out to 44F, no winds with clear, dry skies ahead of us. 

CHANNEL:  Early low is the time to go and everyone here must know it.  Cleaned up as swell steadies but mis-appropriated sands have the bars grasping for purchase.  Plenty of drops and flops with seasoned sliders wall-eyeing and calculating.  Size runs the gamut from head high to below.  Plenty on the menu but choose the offerings wisely as some have more flavor than others.

PATCH:  Rise up this morning.  Smiled with the rising sun. Three little birds perch by my doorstep.  Singing sweet songs of melodies pure and true.  Saying: don't worry bout a thing, cause every little thing gonna be alright.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"Be brave.  Take risks.  Nothing can substitute experience." - Paul Coelho

Steaming streets and streaming feet as the migration to the water's edge starts early.  NW mega swell as the first fall dispatch is dispensed.  Already heady and will continue growth during the morning.  Overnight storms and associated winds have abated and sky attempting to clear.  A day to test your current equipment and determine if upgrades are required.  Limits will be met and exceeded today - so know or discover yours.  

CHANNEL:  Lurching pits if you are willing to commit upon lower tides now on the rise.  Looming lefts finding all serviceable sandbars but size overwhelms at times. Quantity is present but quality rides need to be carefully sought and ridden with abandon.  Size on the upper scale with head high peaks attainable on the drop.  Waves washing in front of the boat ramp as an alternative arena with less attendees. 

PATCH:  S swell expires but plenty of W in the new swell to override reefs and flow unimpeded.  An accumulation of energy with a growing logger assembly spread throughout a wide range.  Something for everyone and more than meets the eye.  Stay thirsty my friends.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"To know is to know you know nothing.  That is the meaning of true knowledge." - Confucius

Misted but not twisted and lightly dampening the ground but not spirits.  Initial overcast giving way to partitions of blue with tepid temps of 55F and no winds to swirl.  NW swell backing down to modest means while the S storms ahead and builds momentum.  Tidal swings will have their effects both positive and negative today and most sliders look to be throwing caution to the wind and diving in. 

CHANNEL:  Residual roundup of remaining swell has left leaners and in-betweeners as options.  Early morning low gets you easy access but mind the horizontal and vertical pilings along the seawall.  A smooth frontage facing all worthy participants and though the size is down the formations are clean. 

PATCH:  Reunited with S swell and showing the love.  A newly steepened angle allows for sets to show and blow while peripheral areas feel the offshoots.  Logger's Delight if you have the right sled.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"It takes less time to do a thing right, than it does to explain why you did it wrong." - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

A profound depth in the air with swirling fog to obscure the obvious.  Concentrated energies arise and spirited parking lot discussions will go a long way to determining destinations.  No winds to speak of as skies slowly resolve to allow for sun.  Air temp a seasonal 49F while water temp seeks normalcy and finds itself at 54F.  Uranus is at Opposition and a feeling of Fall on both land and sea today.

CHANNEL:  Frothy and feral with a minority drawn to this venue.  A mid-period NW lends itself to the locality and the incoming tide pushes up and up.  Those in the water are temporarily concealed from sight but seem to return unscathed and elated. 

PATCH:  Re-purposed rights reaffirm our love affair with the Patch.  Consistent and coherent in the early hours.  Sedated and swamped at lunch.  Settled and sweet in the evening.  Why don't you grab your log and join the activities?

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"Life has no limitations, except the ones you make." - Les Brown

Wispy white clouds are painted on this morning's bright blue canvas of crystal clear sky.  The sun is brightly glowing yellow in all her glory as we begin our morning adventure.  Breathing in cool, clean air, we come together in solitude, grateful for life, love and peacefulness.  The ocean is our sanctuary, our special place, which we are so fortunate to call home.

CHANNEL:  The early bird catches the worm in forms of thigh high rides. NW swell moving in along with long-period SSW swell. High fives and smiling faces in between sets as the oceans energy delivers our daily entertainment.  Long pauses in set waves gives us a moment to appreciate our extraordinary surroundings. Air temp at 57 as the glorious sun warms our mind, body and soul.

PATCH:  Well hello old friend, I haven't seen you in awhile.  For a moment I was worried you forgot the way.  So happy you made it and are making yourself so comfortable.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"For every complex problem there is an answer that is clear, simple and wrong." - H.L. Mencken

Bright beams and big dreams reflect off of the water and back on to us. Like a big hug, morning breezes bring us warmth and messy hair. 66F now and rising, as we live to see this clear day. The coast has been a great escape from the smoke for lots of us. As we continue to keep ourselves involved in our community, let the day go as it should, and adjust accordingly.

CHANNEL:  Fluffy and full, too much water at the moment with the tide on it's way up up up. The remaining few still strive to be the last out, while one newcomes go because he is already here. Breezy but not to be an obstacle, for now. Keep an eye on conditions as winds change and water levels drop. Better results come with patience.

PATCH:  Soft, smooth, and nothing to ride.  For now anyway. Lower tides have been working quite nicely, I hear, so try wait.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"The greatest of all mistakes is to do nothing because you think you can only do so little." - Zig Ziglar

Windy and warm as wild weather continues.  Pockets of heavy gusts followed by periods of calm.  Skies and air have thankfully cleared and temp is already up to 70F.  Road debris of fallen foliage is the norm so take the 13 turns nice and easy.  Curious deer and fox recently displaced add another level of care that needs to be taken.  Residual swells still pertain though current tides and tempests make the hunt and seek a bit more involved. 

CHANNEL:  All being pushed and pulsated from the W lend credence to rights bearing their way into the Channel mouth.  No real lows and just moderate swings so plan entry and exit strategies in advance.  Textured top coats but not all wind whipped and breakers will come and go with the thigh as our current unit of measure. 

PATCH:  Rising tide hoping to push forth the S swell that lingers and lurks below.  Enough energy remains for log rides on high tides but size is diminished and hovers around one's knee.  Still a worthwhile option as far as options go.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"By perseverance the snail reached the ark." - Charles Spurgeon

Smoked valleys with clearing skies well above.  Burnt vapors on chilled breath as temps find the range of 46F.  Just the lightest of NE winds with a foreboding warmth being carried along.  Those seeking moments of calm and clarity find the beach at an attempt for normalcy among the chaos.  NW swell mixture fading but still activated.  SW swell again morphs and modifies while struggling to find purchase.  There is hope on the horizon and it can almost be seen clearly from here. 

CHANNEL:  More tide swings hope to bring divergent results on the languishing NW swell.  Pushing mostly from the W and finding the shallow bars very early.  Rights with frequency but not size forge ahead into the Channel.  A peaking deepness may temper these breakers even more but afternoon options are again worth exploration. 

PATCH:  A duo does not debate and embarks on an adventure into Neverland.  Steady state surfaces gently undulate with the incoming tide push facilitating the flop.  The buoys say swell is in existence, the eye test tells a differing tale.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"Every living faith must have within itself the power of rejuvenation if it is to live." - Mahatma Gandhi

Seemingly settled morning with potential positivity around the next bend.  NW swell holds form while the S shifts and grows in period but not size.  Mid-day tides seek to thwart efforts at stoke with high water levels and meager swings.  Another day of clearing skies and light winds though temp drops to 45F.  A new high pressure system is on the march and will bring another dose of heat and winds this weekend.  

CHANNEL:  Early tides yielding developing rides as the incoming tide push elicits inner Channel action.  Pulsating rights just off the Mali-Bo bar have enough water coverage and aspect to allow for new breakers.  A growing gaggle partakes in the red rising sun and re-connects with restorative energy. 

PATCH:  The lone paddleboarder in the distance finds expanses of horizontal waters and unbroken surfaces.  A solemn totem signaling no surf today.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise." - Victor Hugo

Smoldering skies again greet the day and our noses know things are still a dire scenario in the North Bay.  Those here at the coast seek a respite and removal from the trauma and may find moments that soothe before a return to reality.  Use your time in nature wisely and realize its true meaning and power to heal.  46F and mostly calm winds.  Clearing horizon now red lit and yielding to blue.  

CHANNEL:  Decent dosage as the NW swell grows in shape and form.  Tide timing is crucial for both entry, exit and existence.  Possibly a bit too much water today to allow for breakers of significant consequence but there are foldovers forming.  Thigh high slides are applicable and appreciated and an acute eye may find a hidden gem or two amongst the chaff.  

PATCH:  Dregs of displaced swell not nearly noticeable or engaging.  Repeal and replacement will have to wait for the next swell with SW bearings.  For now - flat.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"The greatest obstacle to discovery is not ignorance - it is the illusion of knowledge." - Daniel J. Boorstin

Physical bodies are here while hearts and minds are elsewhere.  We gaze out upon an undarkened horizon hoping for a better today and tomorrow.  Skies above are clear yet the sun still rises fiery red.  Temp of 47F with light NW winds to confound relief efforts.  S swell subsides while NW rejuvenates the juices.  Keep your family and friends close and be ready to take decisive actions.  

CHANNEL:  Plenty of W in the undulations pushing forth.  Realigned sandbars still giving mixed messages and middling reviews.  At times a work of cinematic excellence while there are periods of aimless wanderings.  The good ones go waist high or better and deviate towards the right.  The others mingle, merge and mesh together forming less than meets the eye.

PATCH:  Not today my friends as all sources of breaker are shut and sheltered in place.  Mildly wavering tides show no capacity to cause much of a positive turn.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"There is a crack in everything.  That is how the light gets in" - Leonard Cohen.

Thick smoke clashing with the marine layer as we continue to send our strength and prayer to our northern friends and family.  With air quality lower than yesterday, the perfume of singe fills the space around us.  We watch as the red sun rises over the hills radiating upon the ocean like a sea of flames. Beautiful luminous colors dance upon the waters surface.  Air temps starting at 52 with promise of warmth taping out at 68 this afternoon.

CHANNEL:  Calm cool and collected.  Fishing boats coming and going are the only ones gliding through the channels current of the diminishing NW swell.  Rumors of S swell murmur on the horizon.  Small shin motions resembling waves slowly turn and churn forward. 

PATCH:  One lone disciple searching out their morning baptism.  Like arriving early to a surprise birthday party, while the distinguished guest is fashionably late to arrive.  You wait and wait, until finally the party begins.  Celebrating like a twirling dervish on thigh high rides.

Inspirational Quote of the Day:
"You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step." - Martin Luther King, Jr.

Rising red sun peeking its way through the smoke-colored sky begins this day with an eerie feeling. Hot air full of cool breeze makes contact with profiles, reminding us its fire season. The smell of camp fire in the ozone brings back child hood memories of carefree days. Thoughts of strength, prayer and safety fill our minds as we send them to our NorCal friends and firefighters. NW swell still strong as S swell grows slightly. Warmer air of 58 with pockets of cool.

CHANNEL:  Calm with slight ruffles on the waters surface.  One lone believer catching knee to thigh rides while taking breaks to view the sun through rose colored glasses.  If solitude is what you are searching for the channel is providing.  Incoming tide pushing throughout the day may help the NW swell say hello.    

PATCH:  Rights and lefts delivering packages of stoke and bliss to the dozen riders and gliders.  Fun waist and thigh rides and slides are providing for the pack of 8 already in the water.  Bring your favorite log, you will not be disappointed.
