Thanks for the compliments guys.

Rem, I wish that I could say I've tried snowboarding, but with the expensive cost of snowboarding or surfing, surfing makes more sense to me since I'm only 15 minutes from the beach and don't have to buy a lift ticket. My sister has a cool snowboard though, so if I rented boots and adjusted the bindings, I could probably try hers.

I just went out to Pismo Beach this morning to get a few quirky Christmas gifts (a chocolate covered scorpion for my brother!) and the waves looked great for learning on! Thanks to finals, no such luck to make it out there today. Oh well.
