Today we actually set our alarms so that we could drive to Santa Cruz and skate early (well, at least I {Erica} had to set my alarm). Tara called me at 7am sounding like a dog that had just gotten its voice box removed. After discussing whether she should visit the ER, we came the conclusion that she should not be driving to Santa Cruz let alone skating. I ended up driving my temperamental Acura Integra, that doesn't always start and occasionally and pops out of 5th gear.
I picked up Angie at SF city college and headed south. Soon we were in Santa Cruz, standing around Skate Works skateshop, sipping coffee with Kenna, pitching add space to Bill, and scoping out new trucks since mine were ground down through the bolts. We left Skate Works and headed to the Santa Cruz skatepark.
The park was pretty empty and we had an epic session. Sandy came and took some footage. The sun was shining and everyone was happy... that is until the ranger showed up (apparently they give tickets if you don't wear helmets there). After that the park cleared out and everyone left.
Of course we headed to Derby, and enjoyed more blissful skating in the sunshine. A couple other girls met us here. There is some water warehouse on the other side of the fence from the snakerun, and some dude handed rejected gallon jugs over the fence to Kenna so we were all ample hydrated.
After about an hour of skating Derby, Kenna had to leave to buy a PC power cord, since her dog had chewed one up that morning. Bummer.
Angie and I also left so I could get a falafel and she could get taco bell or something. After that we found ourselves downtown at Pergs coffee shop sitting outside. We decided to people watch for a bit but Angie was blatantly double taking everyone so it was best that we hit the road. On the drive home we recreated the phonetic alphabet with inappropriate words so that the next time she is flying, she can call the air traffic control tower and make the radio operator choke. Well, we thought it was funny.
