I wonder what it would be like to be a lonely, muck-encrusted monster? Probably be an improvement.

Re: **2015 Valiant Photo Scavenger Hunt Contest**
So guys I have been busy.
Like I said in my last post in this thread ~ I go a bit crazy.
But life gets in the way of life sometimes.
But I did do some art, which I found really hard to do. Colouring the dot to dot was REALLY difficult. I want to do more on it ~ but don't want to destroy it. As the paint flakes off the cover as it is high gloss white paper.

But I have another work in progress! Which I am really enjoying, and find quite relaxing to do.

I wish their was a Spinal Tap comic, and I had a copy CGC graded at 11.

-Carrying A Valiant Comic @ Surfing / Wakeboarding

This was tougher than I thought it would be. Waves today were about 3-4 feet but with a closeout shorebreak. It was kind of rough for my daughter (the photographer) so I told her to stand in waist-deep water and wait for me to come by.
First book made it through one wave because I tried to paddle with it in my hand. So long, Shadowman 5.
Second book, I held it in my teeth. Still only made it through one wave because I wiped out pretty hard. Sorry, no pics. So long Quantum & Woody 2.
Third book was a Rai 2 mask variant. I held it in my teeth to paddle, caught three waves. The picture is from the last one just as the mask came off. My daughter used a GoPro so we had to wait to get home to see the pics. Only one had me with a book in my hand. So there you go. And yes, that is a VH1 Shadowman surf shirt.

BTW, someone asked me if I was flipping a bird with my left hand in that surfing picture. Nope. That's the Rai mask when it came off the cover.
