The first weekend in August was our branch RS surf day! Our amazing branch president and some of his friends from our stake take a Saturday each summer and spend it teaching the women in our branch and the YSA women how to surf. After my great experience last summer I was supper excited for round 2. Here I am ready to hit the waves.
Unfortunately after about an hour of surfing without the suggested foot wear (Doheny is known for being a very rocky beach and water shoes are recommend, however I went last year and didn't wear them and was fine) I went to rinse off in the shower and noticed my feet were bleeding...upon closer inspection I realized my feet were cut up pretty badly including a chunk out of my big toe that wouldn't stop bleeding.
One of the girls went to the life guard station to retrieve some first aid items....however when she came back she brought the life guard with her to assess the situation...about 2 mins later 2 more life guards showed up in a truck. Seriously embarrassing. Luckily the hottest one won the toss to take care of me. :) We chatted he cleaned and bandaged my feet and all the other girls stood around staring mostly. Just as he finished one of the YSA girls came up with as scrape on the side of her foot...the life guard handed her a bandaid to put on and went on his way... I wanted to giggle and say "...sorry hun, I may be older but I've still got it. ;)" instead I just smiled and winked at and thanked the life guard as he walked away. ahhh the adventures of a 30-ish woman, living the single life.
Bahaha, I LOVE this story. I hope you are healed by now. I'm concerned over that big chunk that went missing.
