In reply to: TX is a huge state...all sorts of geography...explore it
Too big. Texas's size just shows the damned state's lack of natural geographical boundaries.
For example, Albuquerque, Flagstaff, Phoenix, and Denver are all closer to Hueco Tanks than Houston or Dallas. That is just wrong.
Oh, and as for where I'm from.
Born and raised in Logan, Utah
Went to grad school in Dallas, Texas
currently living in Castleton, Utah. The Promised Land.

Indeed. A great place to get yourself a couple of wives, and settle down.

Nope... one of those things I just never did, even though I've lived near the ocean my whole life. I've attached a pic of Kogel Bay, decent surfing spot close to Stellenbosch where I grew up. Mountains and the sea... perfect combination. This was taken the day before my wedding in 2001 by sangiro

Damn... That's beautiful... And probably without all the raw sewage, hypodermic needles, and stuff that some of our beaches have after large rain storms.

i've surfed in south africa, and it is as good as it gets. jeffrey's bay if you like big stuff(i thought i was going to die). muisenburg and a few other places near cape town are nice for more mellow stuff. would love to go back and explore more.
loads of great whites in SA, but the biggest concentrations are where not many people surf anyway(cape agulhas area especially). i never worried about it when i was there.
good rock too.

i'm strictly a hack rrradam, but i think i have as much fun out there as anyone. need a hurricane to hit the salt lake so i can get some local practice. never surfed in the us, but have surfed in south africa, peru, chile, easter island, and australia. wanted to go when i was in tahiti a few months ago, but surf boards are hard to come by and not many are willing to rent boards. next time i'll bring my own, but i was there for a honeymoon and not a surf trip.
oh, i'm from montana, but am kind of a transient. utahrd now, and probably will be for a long time.
