It's only fair: The Surf Gods cheated us last year. What we looked forward to as a possibly Epic Winter thanks to La Nina, turned out to be another Cleveland disappointment, with The Lake freezing over, almost as if it was some kind of sadistic X-mas present intended to make one feel even worse about being a Clevelander.
If that's possible.
But now strange things seem to be happening for a late February. The Lake ice, which we might expect to be with us well into March, seems to be melting and breaking-up.
Is it possible? Surf for March? We at The Sewer Pipe won't make any grand predictions: Stick your weather models up your ass, NOAA; don't you know the End Times are near?
But we will offer a sacrifice this Saturday at the 4th Annual Smash Day, by burning alive the current issue of Surfer Magazine, in the hope that it will appease the mighty Lake Gods, and bring us what we have longed for for so long, that it all seems like a half-remembered dream.
Some scenes from not the last session, but the last session that we here at The Sewer Pipe didn't throw the film straight from light table and into the garbage can. We've been saving them for you, just in case by this time you might have forgotten what a fun day at The Sewer Pipe was like:
