Skimboarding Dream #001 (but really of course more)

Had yet another dream about skimboarding last night. I’ve been having at least one a week all winter. My mind is bent on the day I can return to the beloved Sea with board under arm, breath in the salt air, and be at home again.

So in my dream last night I was walking down the beach, like a beach on Sanibel Island and just happened to come across my skimboard lying on the sand! I thought how lucky no one stole it. It wasn’t my current “Sander” skimboard, but rather more like the classic fiberglass covered wood “Western Flyer” skimboard I used to ride in my youth. I picked it up and proceeded to have some nice smooth rides, as most rides in my dreams tend to be. There were several other skimboarders around as well. I have mostly skimboarded alone all my life, so it was nice to have company.

Today was the warmest day of the year so far in Tokyo. If weather like this can stick around for good, then I could begin my 2007 skimboarding season as early as April 1st, or even the end of March. That would be sweet.
