This is Tide Guides 8th season running bonafide surf camps. 2 nights and 2 days on the beach, and surfing the shore break at Port Aransas, Texas. Very pleased to have some return surfers in camp, Jeff Mason, must be year number 4 now, he is a Hewlett Packard man during the week in Houston or somewhere on the globe, and is becoming a promising surfer. On Saturday both he and I rode a wave side by side, and in control enough to talk, so this is what makes these safari's so much fun. One of Jeff's colleages, Davie McGaughey whom hails from Scotland, was learning with us and had a sea turtle jump out of the water and land on the deck of his longboard, bumping into him. Davies girlfriend had a thick Scottish accent and a couple times i had to ask her "Could you please say that agian". We had a father, Daughter Toby and Kara Meyers with us. Kara surfed a little bit with her father Saturday, and then she became a little uncomfortable with the Sargassam Seaweed we had this trip. It was quite thick 50 feet out from shore, and she couldn't stand having it in her long pretty hair, she said, "i had to wash my hair 4 times". But she got up on the board and her father was proud of her. Troy Donovan, graduated class and rode his longboard over the 30 feet. Any one who can do this gets to sign their name on the awning in camp. So he is now in the 30 foot club. I had a chance to talk with Morgan Faulkner, we've known each other for a few years now, he runs a surf camp, and gets lots of the young kids, so he and i talk and have a good relationship. Also met Ted, the owner of the new surf shop in town. Surf camp #1 was great.
