In my younger days, I enjoyed surfing with my Dad. Once he was gone, the urge to surf left me, but reading stories of surfers and the waves they ride never did. I still enjoy a great surf story like this one from Marcus Sanders of Surfline.com.
If you’re into surfing or just like reading about catching the next wave as I do, take a little time and immerse yourself in this article.

Imagine the planning and coordination of colors and help to make something like this a reality in life.
