Rob was an AWSAR Rescue Swimmer
His friend got him into body surfing. He went early the next morning and there was no one else there. He noticed that the waves were a bit larger than the afternoon before. He made it out to the sweet spot and then the waves beat him down. He was all the way to the bottom of the ocean floor. Fighting the current and for breath. A man in a wet suit appeared on a board and handed him this cheap cheezy styrofoam body board. When Rob got in to the shore, he waited for an hour for the man to come in from the water. Rob realized that his were the only foot prints in the sand and his was the only vehicle in the parking lot. He thanked God for the Angel.
