GP2K2 Day 2 
by KC "Dumpy" Filer 

Hey,

I see there is another ASer using the handle KC. To avoid confusion I'll start using Casey for mine.  Here another installment of my impressions of this year's GuidoPalooza.

Outer Banks, NC

Day 2

0700
Reveille - went upstairs for coffee with Neal and others.
Debated dawn patrol or breakfast, depending on conditions.
Initial reports from out front of the house were not inspiring, so we drank
more coffee.

0830
Rod and I went south for a surf check.
Checked first turn-off south of Avon - nada
Checked Lighthouse - very little swell and on shore wind
Back for breakfast.

0930 - 1130
Neal made custom omelettes.  Pretty damn good.
Everyone feasted.
There were a few breakfast beers consumed.
Kirk at work... omelets one day, blueberry pancakes the next

1200
Went north to check Rodanthe.  Looked rideable but not compelling.
Went back to the house.

1300 - 1600
Session in front of the house.
This may be the highlight of the Palooza: Robb and others towed out a
floating cooler stocked with beer into the lineup.
All drank beers between waves.
Pat H. arrived at the beach 1500.
Ferg arrived at some point.

1700
Post-session beers and other potables.
Steve M. arrived.
All chowed down on fajitas and enchiladas.

After dark -
Awards ceremony - Surfin' Santa, long-lost Thermos, etc were handed out.
Don't recall who all got what, except I got the Wipe-Out Ball.
HUGE fireworks display courtesy of Ferg.  Mortar-like rockets with a big
air-burst and LOUD explosions.  I still can't believe the cops didn't show
up.

Later
More partying.
