[FairfieldLife] Re: Low Tide at Ocean Beach
Nice description - That is a pretty rare thing, no wind at Ocean Beach - When I boogey boarded a lot, I'd always get out around 4 at the latest, as it is then feeding time. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, jr_esq@... wrote : As I walked at the water's edge, it appeared that a few people ahead of me were walking on water. This was the lowest tide that I've ever seen at this beach. The water's edge was about 300 yards away from the paved pedestrian lane. I saw the sun set in the reddened western sky in the sign of Libra. The temperature was like summer with no wind. As I was shaking the sand off my feet near the parking lot, a black guy asked me if I saw his wife walk by. I said, No, I didn't see her. A surfer asked me to help him zip his wet suit from his back shoulder. Then, he stepped down the beach steps with his surfboard to ride the evening waves.

Fleetwood, I'm not a surfer. So, what does feeding time mean? On windy days, at the same beach, you can see many surfers using wind kites to zip along the waves. Some of them literally fly off from the water and do somersaults. Their feats are incredible to behold. It's officially called kitesurfing. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitesurfing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitesurfing ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, fleetwood_macncheese@... wrote : Nice description - That is a pretty rare thing, no wind at Ocean Beach - When I boogey boarded a lot, I'd always get out around 4 at the latest, as it is then feeding time. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, jr_esq@... wrote : As I walked at the water's edge, it appeared that a few people ahead of me were walking on water.
