Finally decent weather but a disastrous weekend

I thought this sunset pic was a fitting for what has been a disastrous weekend.

The weather has been just pain nasty for the last few weeks so I haven't been doing a damn thing other than going to the gym and working.

So when the weather turned nice, nice being no rain, calm seas, but hot as hell, we had great expectations of getting out on the ocean and having some fun.

Saturday morning the seas were calm but we decided to wait until late in the afternoon to go out avoiding the hottest part of the day. By the time we got out the ocean had gotten rather rough but we stayed out until well after dark anyway. I guess because it was so dark that I couldn't see the horizon I got the worst case of sea sickness that I've ever gotten in my life. Almost passed out on the boat and puked all over the place including all over Christy's car door on the way home.

So we got up early to wash Christy's car door and then pack up all the kayaking gear so that we could meet with friends at John U. Lloyd Beach State Park and go snorkeling and kayaking. If it wasn't for us organizing this get together we would probably have just stayed in bed all day since both of us are sore as hell from wave hoping and I still felt like shit from the day before.

Today turned into pretty much of a disaster too.

I flipped my kayak which is normally not that big of a deal but I got careless and didn't have stuff properly secured. So I lost a pair of expensive sunglasses, but I didn't really like them anyway so it wasn't a big deal but I also lost my $50 kayaking hat. Plus I had my wallet and bunch of other things in the hatch of my kayaking which leaked so the battery pack for my iPhone got wet which ruined it so another $45 plus the spare battery for our camera got wet ruining it too. Right now my wallet and everything else that I had in my kayak bag is hanging in the garage drying.

Although I'm doing better then our kayaking friend is since his underwater camera leaked while he was underwater filming Christy so now he is out what is probably an expensive underwater camera.

Along with a new hat and iPhone battery pack I also ordered a dry bag to keep my stuff in so that this doesn't happen again.
