Broken Promises

I promised my wife I wouldn't paddle out alone anymore.  Today I broke that promise.  Got down to the beach at 5:15 this morning and there was enough light to paddle out.  The wind was hard offshore and there was a flurry of peaky shoulder high waves pouring through.  Not another soul in sight.  Sorry honey I'll try harder next time.  Caught 4 or 5 waves before I saw anyone else on the beach.
