    Friday, December 9th, 2011 in About Me, Our Travels Worldwide

    I was so scared last night. I had convinced myself that I would in fact die while surfing, that it would be my final act in my short life. I gave the girls lots of kisses, told them I loved them and gave some words of wisdom to my oldest daughter: “BE PATIENT WITH YOUR
