Unexpected Small Waves

Went for a paddle this morning expecting to do just that...paddle. Headed off through Sarges to inside GDubs and took a couple pics, watched a set roll through Scimi's and into inside GDubs. Hey, that almost looks ridable, says I. Long story short, surfed for an hour and a half alone in pretty consistent little windswell generated waves that every once in a while put up a very clean, long wall that just keep goin' all the way to the inside flats. Wind was up really early, at paddle out and kept slowly increasing. Not great conditions, but the fun factor canceled out the negative wind direction and velocity.

The real south isn't even coming until tomorrow. Gotta dawn patrol really early 'cause the final EMT skills test is at 1000. The first blip of 15 second interval south showed on the Harvest buoy at 0730. It filled in around noon and should be showing here around dark give or take an hour or so.
