Buen Dia

Good day friends and family.. ...I was able to make a save this morning in Guatemala when a young girl was caught in one of the most gnarly rip currents i have ever seen inbetween 2 jetties without her surfboard.. .. It felt really good. Like all saves do.. It's a good feeling to be able to hug the person you brought ashore vs. the other way around... I miss lifeguarding so much just for that reason... I have NEVER paddled so hard and fast in my life and it paid off.. I now know why i needed to come here this trip... Glad i did..... I think she is too.. ;) i was awarded with a day off in the pool with some angels of Guatemala... enjoy your day!

Surf Music

How could you not want to go surf with this song stuck in your head.. and wow. this song is pretty much spot on to where I'm at in life... Message of Love -Jimi Hendrix Well, I travel at a speed, Of a reborn man. I got a lot of love to give, From the mirrors of my hand. I said a message of love, Don't you run away. Look at your heart, Come along with me today. Well I am what,I am thank GOD. Some people just don't understand. Find yourself first, And then your tool. Find yourself first, Don't you be no fool. Here comes a woman, Wrapped up in chains. Messin' with that fool babe, Your life is pain. If you want to be free, Come along with me. Don't mess with the man, He'll never understand. I said find yourself first, And then your talent. Work hard in your mind, So if you come alive, You better prove to the man, You're as strong as him. Cause in the eyes of God You're both children to him Da da doo doo Everybody come alive Everybody live alive Everybody love alive Everybody hear my message Hey, ooooo Hey, ooooo Hey, ooooo Hey, ooooo Hey, ooooo Everybody come alive, Everybody love alive. Everybody love alive, Everybody hear my message.
