A friend and i left the 206 at 2pm the other day….thinking something on the Strait would work. Got to PA at 4:15pm, good time. No waves.
Checked spot #2, nothing. Drove 15 mins west, checked spot 3, little blips, lotta people. Should we drive another 15 and check spot #4 or just hang it up? Sure, lets cheggit–nothing. Well, we came this far….check spot #6? Ok, what time is it now? 7pm. Nothing at spot #7 though lotsa cars parked. Now we have to go to Neah Bay to spot #8. Spot #8 was working…but breaking right on shore. Ok….on to spot #9–huge and outta control. Checked out sooes/hobuck…bumpy, messy. Back to spot #8. We get in water at about 7:50pm. Had an hour session…got a few fun rides. Surfed with a whale. Kelp was outta control.
Back up at minivan at 9:05. Fuck…this is gonna be a rough drive. Mild speeding on the way home. Aimed to make the last ferry at Bainbridge (12:55am). We pass a cop just before HC bridge. Didn’t flinch on the slight over speeding. Cool. Officer catches up to me
a few miles later…pulls me over. 11:45pm. Weird. Calls out my name as he’s walking to car. I get “arrested”. Evidently i had a suspended license. Cuffed in back of car, he’s diggin into my record, trying to figure out what i have a suspended license for. No clue. I have to go to court. Oh well, super nice, ends up letting me go. Right before i’m about to get let go, he realized that he’d given the court date to my friend (he had both our licenses). Took another 15 mins to get that fixed. I’m released and with my friend at the helm, we are back on the road. We were located just before the HC Bridge at 12:15am, bout a 1/2 hour to make it to the Bainbridge ferry.
Friend drives slightly fast..not too bad. We are thinking we were gonna miss the ferry, then we think we’re gonna make it. Then we come up to a police road block. Big fatality car wreck, with a huge detour. We were only a couple miles away too. We end up blazing through this detour with maybe 2 minutes to make the ferry. Another car is blazing right behind us–same program. We make the ferry at 12:55am.
The lady in the car behind us on the detour knew the ferry booth girl and called ahead while we were driving. She saved our ass from camping in the Bainbridge ferry line till 4:55am. Good looking out.
Made it home about 2am. 12 hours of travel for one hour of surf.
Dedication? Stupidity? Luck?
QUIT RUINING NW FATALITY CAR WRECKS YOU KOOK
advanced hippie skills “bro’s” might say, *KARMA*? w.t.f., sure as hell don’t know… might as well get wrecked trying
lol @ karma: the dead person in the car must’ve killed a whale with a 50cal or something gnarly, if all sdrex got was delayed on the way back to his penthouse full of waiting snowbunnies…
speaking of karma though, i just found another brokespoke. fuck.
I suppose this is a precursor to you blowing out more details this season.
Sweet.
I guess you need this kind of shiite to drive traffic to the site. Could’ve kept the details out. As in none.
Well fak. Shitty luck though – those cops ain’t no joke cuz they aint got shit to do. Cruise control all the way these days, been blasted too many times with them to give them any more money.
Keep it clean.
S-o
ain’t got shit to do for reals. when i was in the back of the copwhip, he was clickin around on his laptop…fully had a game of solitare running.
the crazy thing was he got my license plate by eye. at night. and while i sped by at 65mph. guy was on point.
i asked him how he was able to see my plates at night and at 65mph? he said “i’m good.”
So good cuz thats his life.
Just had some random peeps at Summit Lake Grocery (on the way to Westy) come up to me on Sunday and ask if I had been drinking.
I was tired and my girl lost her ID so she looked a couple of times under cars for it. Some guy is his T-Bird thought she was drunk, so his friend questioned me cuz I was driving.
He was an off duty cop and I said – no we hadn’t been drinking (we hadn’t, just tired as shit). The guy said ” Well I’m an off duty deputy sheriff” (looking all cop like checking out the inside of my car).
I said, well then you can understand that we’re tired and not drunk. Told us we should consider resting a bit there for a bit. Blah Blah Blah – the guy was so out of line. These guys need to find something better to do with there time. I think there’s a few kids missing, drug dealers, or something better than bothering random people with Surfboards. Fak em.
S-o
Washington’s a police state! Fuckers got my money blasting into PA last year. Kid looked barley 18. Think we scared the boy.
