| Head high steep barrels at the Edge on 64th, 8/6/2014 |
Last week- couple days of chest to head, couple days of thigh to waist. Everyday involved surfing within a faceplant of the shore. I read an editorial by a local surfer about how the offseason's
beach replenishment diminished the offshore sandbar and created the dangerous shorebreak we've been experiencing most of the summer. Things that make you go, "hmmmmm." Get's the adrenaline goin' that's for sure. Swirling barrels sucking up sand from the floor and all the while you're eyeing the fast approaching shore. Yeah, baby!

Also had the
White Marlin Open running. Didn't get to see nuthin' myself but the first, forth, and last day had some serious action. So consider this a photo blog. Shorebreak and tournament fishing. How cool is that?

More from the July Beercation... On our way up to Makinac we spent the night in
Petoskey, Michigan. Prime opportunity to visit
Petoskey Brewing. A brewpub with quite the selection (we were a bit late for any food), the most original was Brain Freeze, a raspberry cream ale brewed with waffle cones and fresh raspberries. Light fruit taste with the waffle cone in the background. Easy drinking at 20 IBUs, but dangerous at 6.9% ABV. Their house IPA, Mind's Eye was purty goot as well. Orange-copper in color, on and a half finger head, fair lacing. Big hop presence in this one. 6.7%ABV and 74 IBUs. Very dry, like an English IPA in its bitterness. I rated it a B+.
