Weekend antics

This past weekend proved to be very interesting. Saturday we picked up our "new" (to us at least) SUP, stand-up paddle board. Since we don't have a car and can't take a 10 ft. board on the bus, we had to figure out a way to get it home. We thought paddling it home was the best, since it was only a bit over 2 miles straight along the beach to our house. This would have been a great idea if not for the 6-9 ft waves. We ended up trading off carrying it and paddling it like a surf board (on our stomachs, with our arms). Luckily we brought our wetsuits, so the many dunkings we got didn't make us too cold.
We now count among our toys 2 bikes, 2 surfboards and a stand-up paddle board. I think that's enough for now, but who knows when a cheap kayak will be up for sale.
We took our stand-up paddle board for a real test run today. It turns out, I'm a natural. Not so much for Kaleb. (picures coming soon)
Kaleb is now back amongst the employed. He's working for an outdoors company that makes and sells great wool clothing, tents, backpacks, etc. No word yet on his discount, though I'm sure we'll end up spending at least half of his salary at the store.
There's a fantastic farmers market here every Sunday. We end up getting most of our food there. They even sell cheese, fresh bread, and meat.
