What a DAY!

Yesterday was one of the best summer days in SB. It started at about 10 am when Joe and I went to get an electric pump for the day's entertainment. A 12 ft. in diameter water trampoline and a 8ish ft. inflatable boat with ores. We all: Tanner, Joe, Ryan, Craig, and I got ready with guac. PB and J, drinks, granola bars, etc. We arrived at east beach and spent about 30 minutes blowing up the trampoline just on the side of the road. After putting on sunscreen and eating we set out towards the nearest bouey. Ryan and I rowed as the others swam alongside the tramp. We hooked the two around a bouy and went crazy. The tramp was very hard to get on when you are in the water, so it was quite a workout. A guy named Ricky who was playing in the VB tournament swam out ot us just to check it out and say hi. He was a mechanical engineer who went to school at cal poly. How random and cool. We then relaxed and played some king of the hill. Which was pretty dang sweet. After some more activities we decided to row out to a boat/ship. We asked the only guy aboard if we could come up and check it out. His name was Ezra and he and his family lived on the boat. He was 19 and has been boating for over 2 years. We were are so excited to be on the boat and learning about what it is like not only to live like that but also how to navigate a boat that big. It was AWESOME. After a little while we got back on are more deflated boat and trampoline, gave him our numbers so he could hang out if he came into town, as he had no idea when his parents would come back. The rest of the beach day included Joe burying Craig up to his head while standing up, playing vollayball, and watching intense backgammon. Afterwards, we had pizza at our apartment, with Heather and Becca, Tanner and Joe's girlfriend and fiancee and we watched Parenthood! Can you beat that??? Despite my picture I really was having a blast.

WTF why did I ever leave SB. Seriously, what was I thinking.

That sounds ridiculously fun and I'm glad you enjoyed it.

See you soon.
