More specifically, Crystal Pier @ Night. Long Exposure. The Pier @ Night with the holiday lights is unique because the lights are not there all year long, giving the water and pier a little more glow than normal

"Jesse's Story" by Mark Jacobs

2009-08-07T18:02:00.001-07:00

WOW. "Jesse's Story" premiered last night @ The Malibu Cinemas for the 10th annual Malibu Film Festival. Jesse's Story chronicles the life of Jesse Billauer, a gifted young surfer who suffered a tragic surfing accident at the age of 17 leaving him a quadripelgic. I won't spoil it for those who have yet to see the inspiring documentary...but if you ever think you got it bad, learn about Jesse's Story...think again...& Go Chase a DREAM

The City of San Diego's Therapeutic Recreation Services (TRS) program provides sports, recreation, leisure and outreach services to San Diegans with disabilities. One of the services that most definitely includes all of the above... Surfing. Ocean Beach Surf & Skate came together with TRS to get kids stoked from all over the county by going surfing in Mission Beach. The sun and waves made for many unforgettable rides and smiles that many of us who surf day to day may not always appreciate with quite the same stoke...
