Just flew back home late Monday night from a amazing 2 week road trip starting in Laguna Beach CA and going all the way to the top of the coast and back down.
I flew into Orange County on a Monday to meet with Chris Wyman with Kaenon who was the mastermind behind this trip. I had enough time left in the day to swing over and pick up 2 new boards from Walker Surfboards and 2 new ones from Surf Prescriptions . Tuesday was spent packing the camper and getting everything you can think of ready for 10 days on the road including sitting at the Dodge Dealer ship for 4 hours. So Wednesday morning after forgetting things and making U turns we finally got on I 5 heading North and drove late into the night till we slept some where on the side of the road around the state line. Thursday when we got on the road it was like clock work Welcome to Oregon and here is the rain . After a stop at Trader Joe's for enough food to feed a army we made it to Washington to meet up with Josh Mulcoy and Kevin.
Saturday we surfed a really fun beach break wedge and made camp along a river. To our surprise a winter storm came through with 60 mph winds and down pouring rain which woke us up around 1 Am to see our truck in the middle of the river as we stepped out of the camper we had raging water up to the bumper and a log blocking our way out. Good thing for 4 wheel drive!!
Sunday we woke to clearing sky's and that's pretty much how the rest of the trip went clear sky's warm weather and perfect waves! That's pretty much where i have to stop the details of where we went and what we surfed . I know plan to hopefully make this trip happen each year and a big thank you to everyone that helped make this trip happen and the crew we had on the trip!!!!!
If have not already done it check out www.Kaenon.com and stay posted for more photo's and video of the trip.
Extra Special thank you to Chris and his family for everything they did!!!
Sounds like an awesome trip. All except the river trying to take over the truck.
