I sent Gwen Mickelson a thank you email for all of her great contest coverage and accurate assessment of our "offbeat, fun-loving" band of merry men and women.
She's good! :D

This is really a great story. Wetsand has now linked up to the Sentinel's story on their website as part of their Headlines world coverage of ocean-related events.

Freddie Peterson,
Keep rippin it up!!!
Inspiration is only the tip of the iceburg.

It was great seeing you at this summers gathering in H.B.
I remember you from when we were kids at St. Bonniventure church in H.B.
Saw you again once when I was on a business trip up north at a hardware store.
My prayers are with you. I will always remember you...
GOOD LUCK & Show them how SoCal rips...

Contiki
