July 3rd not quite hooky day

So is the goal to do some diving July 3rd on the North Coast? Camping is available since ab season is over. Woodside is a very nice campground right across the street from the Gerstle Cove entrance for those that want to spend a couple of days on the beautiful coast. I just checked and was amazed at how many spots where in blue meaning available on Reserve America.

I'd be down for a night of camping.

So I ended up getting burnt this past weekend and I'm thinking I'd better not go out this coming weekend.

Well that is too bad, because the conditions are looking good! I will be diving Friday...anyone else?

BTW don't sunburns only matter if they are exposed to more sun? Very rarely do I run around the North Coast without a shirt on.

FRI
S WINDS 5 TO 15 KT. WIND WAVES 1 TO 3 FT.
NW SWELL 3 TO 5 FT. PATCHY FOG.

The burns on my upper arm I can cover up easily and really they aren't that bad. But my nose and the top of my head got it pretty bad and aren't as easy to cover up.

I think you need a cool hat.

I got a cool hat, just didn't wear it on the boat

Good news is that it is healing up pretty nicely. Starting to rethink the wuss out...

Now you are talking sense. You have seen the predictions right?

This is about as calm as the North Coast gets.

FRI
SW WINDS 10 KT...BECOMING W. WIND WAVES 2 FT OR LESS. NW
SWELL 2 TO 4 FT. PATCHY FOG.

So, anybody going on 3rd? Where and when is the meeting?

How about 9:00 am at Fort Ross State Park. You drive down the dirt road and unload your gear, then park back at the top of the hill. Please offer rides to people if you see someone walking back towards the beach.
