Whitby Abbey
Whisps of thick fog curled around my boots as I approached the base of the hill. The early morning sun did little to help with the visibility around my current surroundings. Veritably, I was left with my own sense of orientation and the landmark erected above serving as my compass.

Taylor and Johnny-Boy gaze out at the glass and sip on hot coffee as beautiful barrels roll across the reef. The two surfers in the line-up surge up, down, and over the swells that draw waves from the deep Pacific to the triangular reef naturally formed under their boards. They wax up their boards in anticipation of capturing a few of mother ocean's jade gems of joy, delivering to the coast's sneakiest of all reefs, where finicky shelves of shacks are meant to house the chosen few that can ride this place. This is where unicorns are caught, treasure is discovered, and waves are ridden.

A Memorable Day
It was a crisp autumn morning when my friends and I decided to embark on a fishing trip that we had planned for weeks. The anticipation had been building, and we could hardly wait to get our lines in the water. The destination was a secluded lake known for its pristine beauty and rumored to be home to a mysterious golden bass, a legendary fish that no one had ever caught.
The Magic of Cap May
I gazed out of the car window as we drove along the winding roads leading to Cape May, New Jersey. The early morning sun cast a golden hue over the quaint houses and lush greenery that lined the streets. Itβs a lovely drive from my home to Cap May. My husband and I relive memories of our youth as we drive along. The roads are filled with reminders of why New Jersey is called the garden state. There are farms and forests all along the way. Itβs a peaceful and joyful drive.

June gloom looms today on the Santa Cruz coast. Itβs the type of cold you feel in your bone marrow, the kind of chill you will only tolerate when the waves are at least shoulder high, super quality, and barreling.

Once in a small town named Serenity, there lived a young man named Kane who struggled with an overwhelming fear that seemed to tighten its grip on him with each passing day. Kane's fear had its roots in a traumatic childhood experience that haunted him relentlessly. His nights were filled with restless sleep, and his days were clouded by an ever-present anxiety.
Sweet DaddyPublished 4 months ago in WanderDonkey Beach
Without any lifeguard training, we were going to Hawaii to save souls. Who needed saving? Why were they in danger? I wasnβt so sure back then and all I did was imagine how much fun I could have on my orange and yellow spongey boogie board. I visualized a billowing sandy beach sprawled out amongst wispy pine trees and a small cove with peaky waves that broke left and right across the sand. With the scene imprinted in my imagination, I stood up on my Orangesicle bogey board, strapped the leash on my left wrist, and surfed it off my bed. I hit the ground hard and burned my right cheek into the old carpet. We were leaving in two weeks, and I would be ready!
