Adventure

This has got to be our best day this summer! We left Hobcaw to go Kyaking in the North Inlet to a desolate barrier island called North Island.

Scott and Deanna Benston took us on this trip. They have these excursions you can sign up for through Surf the Earth. There’s usually a waiting list – now I know why! It’s amazing, the scenery, the wildlife, the experience.

Check out photos – and the SHARK we saw! Click on more: (more…)

SEE YOU THERE!

Surf City has some great surfboards. And they just scored another one with Drew’s artwork!

Some girl named Julie Jesiolowski helped Drew finish the board. She was a fun, spunky surfer girl who’s going to school to be a biologist….she has plans to eradicate disease in fetuses….kinda made us feel stupid! I mean, our biggest goal is to just catch a good surf day…..

Mike Barden, the owner, had a hot dog cart giving out free hot dogs, which stoked everyone out because, well, to get free stickers and hot dogs in one day is pretty awesome. READ ON: (more…)

We came, we painted, we kicked ass! Drew painted a board for Mark Allison’s shop – he’ll proudly hang it somewhere conspicuous….

Wiggs ran around and told people what to do while our neice Sophia tried to look cool….(By the way, she’s single and cute and surfs good, but I’ll kick your butt if you ask her out)

Jenn Parker from The Sun News came and took video and will be writing an article for tomorrow’s SUN NEWS Business Section. Go to this link to read it. READ ON: (more…)

Travis Jervey, Tailbacking a wave!Our jobs are hard, mine and Drew’s. We have deadlines to meet, contracts to negotiate, meetings, and sometimes, well, we have to hang with the press.

Today, our job was to take The Post and Courier’s very funny “It Beats Working” columnist Bryce Donovan on a paddleboarding and paddlesurfing expedition. The famous, Former American Football Tailback Travis Jervey happened to join us. READ ON: (more…)

Myrtle Beach is our home base for the summer.  There’s this cool little “swash” that gets filled in during high tide.  Great for Wiggs and other kids to play in!  lt’ also fun to paddle around in so you can see the fish and crabs……

Drew’s been telling me about this swash as long as I’ve known him.  When he was a little boy he played here.  He still does!

Read on to see more photos of this cool little spot!
