Central Coast Wanderings
Occasionally this NorCal warrior has to go see other parts of our great State. I mean as far as land mass goes, we're basically a country (at least in Europe). So over the bridge and south we headed to the Central Coast area.

On this day, on top of enjoying the surf, sun and sand, we were present for a memorial of life for a man named Eddie. He was born in Waikaloa, HI and moved to Pismo when he was young. Eddie was a surfer and was killed in a car accident the week previous. His paddle out was moving and I feel honored to have been there for it. Never met ya bro, but RIP. His wreath came in on the tide a while later.
