winter waves

i was lucky enough to go surf with a couple buddies of mine the other morning.
even though we've had beautiful, warm, sunny days, the water has become rather frigid!
a chilly 53 degrees says my morro bay surf report (note the hood and booties)

it was a gorgeous day, with off-shore breezes.

this is the only kind of wind us surfers love.
it allows the waves to keep their perfect shape,
with the bonus of a rainbow in every spray as the wave breaks.
