Another early morning at Moffats. They are going to finish the semis today, and
all my teammates are in the semis. I
take my time getting to the beach, and basically hang around and cheer everyone
on. I do take some time for a work-related
teleconference, which of course corresponds to a 1-hour break in the
competition while we wait for the tide to change, so I don’t get to go free
surf. Kate and Rachael make it through
to the finals in women’s HP, with Rachael also in the women’s IC final; Jimmy
makes it through to the finals in Master’s IP and HC; and Buey is in the Junior’s
HP and IC finals (there was no semi for these).
We get done early, so I head up to Noosa to surf there. This was the place that I surfed after a
conference in 2007 and was hit in the head by a surfboard and knocked silly,
and I was interested in going back. I
got there in the late afternoon and hiked my boat out to Tea Tree Bay. I managed to leave the backband for my boat
in the car, but no worries, because the waves were fairly small, but there were
long nice rides in the evening sun. I
hiked back to the car as the sun set, drove home, made myself a big dinner, and
crawled into bed.
