Elizabethtown...

"Hey, you're only 45 minutes away. You wanna meet halfway and see the sunrise?"

I stumbled upon a new blog today and was reminded of the movie Elizabethtown when I spotted this picture. I would maybe rate the movie a B- overall, but I have a few favorite quotes...

"To have never taken a solitary road trip across country? I mean everybody's got to take a road trip, at least once in their lives. Just you and some music."

"I'm impossible to forget, but hard to remember."

"There's a diffrence between a failure and a fiasco. A failure is merely the absence of success. Any fool can achieve failure. But a fiasco, a fiasco is a disaster of epic propotions. A fiasco is a folk tale told to other's to make other people feel more alive because it didn't happen to them."

Calendars...

I love Claire Nereim's calendars on Etsy!

Big Dog Surf Camp...

Northern Cal local and surf expert, Ian Glover (Big Dog) launched a summer program for kids last year, which he’s expanding by popular demand to include one-on-one and group surf sessions for adults at Big Dog Surf Camp! Pick up your wetsuit and board at Proof Lab surf shop in Mill Valley. He then shuttles you over the hill to the beach for a three-hour lesson. Single sessions run about $100, but the price goes down per person if you book as a group. And if you enjoyed the movie Forgetting Sarah Marshall as much as I did, you'll appreciate this clip where actor Jason Segel's character is being taught to surf, just to get you in the mood. Thanks DC.
