Oh Yeah, and in case you think it's cold here in Oregon...

CON Surfhouse rennovation

I've been out at the coast lately, working on our surfhouse. Major Water damage repairs, a new woodstove, mantle and stone, and some much needed paint and upkeep have kept me busy at a beautiful time to be on the Oregon Coast. Friends, like Alejandro have volunteered to help, so that we can enjoy a few moments out in front of the house like this...
My uncle Scott has his first board down at the beach house, and we are looking into restoring it as well. It's apparently an old Con Surfhouse board, possibly from as early as '58.
She still rides well, but needs some love and affection, and a place on the wall at the house, once we finish the house. Swell is still around 5', and there's been nobody out. We have had a couple of shark sightings, though.
