Studly Stached Surfer

November was quite a month for Daniel - not only did he participate in Movember and grow a mustache all month (much to my chagrin)...

That's about as close as I like to get to those whiskers...

...he also achieved a long time goal - he got on THE SURF REPORT!  There's a few websites that give daily reports on what the surf conditions are like, including pictures of the local surf hotspots, so that surfers can see the actual waves before deciding whether to head out.  Daniel checks the site (or calls the telephone surf report) daily (if not more)...even on days he knows it's impossible for him to surf (some form of self torture, I think).  He also usually checks the report afterwards to check and see if he MADE the surf report, and after years of looking, he did - multiple times in November...pretty fun pics of my man!  (In other surfing news, Daniel also purchased a short board this fall and surprised himself by actually being able to stand up on it.  Apparently "old guys" can't really learn to short board and should just stick to long boarding - but, they didn't know his level of studly-ness, I guess!)
