And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Every so often I surfed a 22' paddleboard. It turned like a battleship. Once I figured that out, I played all over the wave, walking to and fro along the plank. I had a blast
The other surfers didn't like that I could catch waves way outside of the other guys.
Have to be a hell of a man just to get the board down to the water....

That was a rescue paddleboard kept at San Clemente Lifeguards.
DeleteYears later, around the late 1980s I saw it sold at auction for $3,000.
