Steve Combs report from Blue Mountain Beach, Florida: The waves were blown out all weekend. I went to the Destin Emergency Responders Information Session on behalf the Surfrider Foundation to hear the plans for dealing with the oil. I felt like we were just waiting inside the castle walls for the siege to begin.  I caught a few waves with some old friends and tried to forgot about all the oil headed our way. This may be the last time these beaches are surfable for a very long while. Very sad.  More information about the oil spill is available at www.surfrideratlanta.org.

Check out the video from a stand up paddle trip down the the Etowah River on April 3, 2010. The trip was co-hosted by the Georgia Canoeing Association and Outdoor Adventure Club of the South. Good people, good times.
