Not all adventures and good times took place in the sixties and seventies. Here are a few photos of a recent trip to mainland Mexico- 2005 maybe . Mike, Buck, Mike McKenney (Florida surfer with the stoke of Jim havens and Roy Springer combined) and not shown in photos but Joe Limanni who last surfed in 1966 but decided after surviving pancreatic cancer that surfing ten foot ranch was a piece of cake. In the first picture, the boys are obviously tired and sunburn (especially me). We've been in Mexico for ten days and we just finished a day of some pretty good river mouth.
the next picture was on our way home and we stopped at some beach break and I think we just ate and bought trinkets to let girlfriends and wives know we were thinking of them the whole time we were away.
That's me gingerly avoiding the rocks at Las Gatos in Zihuatenejo. It was small and barely breaking but we hear it could be a great wave at double overhead. You took a boat to get to this side of the bay. Our captain upon seeing our boards told he surfed too and tried to ride a wave on the launch. It sideslipped and we almost wound up on the rocks. Only in Mexico. I love that place.
The last shot shows a water spout out our front door. A hurricane had passed just to our south.
Good to be still making stories and not just telling them.
