I should have taken a better look at the surf report before renting a surfboard for this week. But two weeks at mom’s beach house has surfing written all over it. The house is even in the town of Surfside Beach. I was so excited to get out in the waves I didn’t hesistate for a second.

Even those of you who don’t surf can appreciate the zero star rating given to the not-so-aptly named Surfside Beach on this week’s surf report. Can 1/2 ft. waves even be called waves?

Just for kicks lets take a look at the report for Raglan, New Zealand. Really? 4 stars? Really? Overhead? Well, enjoy the surf Nelson.
