I woke up this morning to a missing Daily Create. Obviously, something went wrong in the DS106DC control room. Illness? Sabotage? Who knows? Someone, I’m sure.
I took a cue from Kevin Hodgson (@dogtrax) who noticed the problem and rolled with it and imagined a possible “freebie” Daily or, better yet, a “missing the Daily” theme. Occasionally, I grow nostalgic when I ponder the months when I had the world-famous Surf Sauna in my driveway through an entire winter surf season in Maine. I could drive it to the beach. I could surf and warm up in the driveway afterward. I could hit the sauna in the evening, just because. It was awesome. I miss the Surf Sauna!
This one was easy. I plucked a photo taken at Gooch’s Beach in 2016, added some proof of Daily text to it, and tweeted it out. I love the small swell in the background, complete with surfers in the lineup. I love the fact that my youngest son (now 16) is just hanging out on one of the benches after a session. And I love that my Hanlon Straw’s Noserider is hanging in one of the board racks. Perfect!
