I know Corky...well kind of

Watch out, I have a habit of deeming you my best friend just because I like you.  For example, the top two bloggers in Orange County, Suz and Marcy, are my best friends. My award winner writer friend, Preston Lerner (who writes for Orange Coast Magazine) is another BFF, and of course my sons' school PTA president, Shannon Maddux is my latest best friend. 

I even have a best friend who has his feet and hand prints immortalized in concrete in front of the ultra cool Huntington Surf and Sport shop. Devil Dog was so impressed that he just had to compare his paws to the legend's. 

Yep, Corky Carroll and me are pals.  Well, at least for one day that is. You see, last April I e-mailed The Corkster to see if he was still living in HB. I was including him in my blog over at the OC Register and wanted to make sure I had my facts straight. Anyway, he asked me if I wanted to write a little something for his column.  700 words later I had pretty much written his entire column for the week. I think he really dug that he could take off and do some surfing instead of typing.  And, I really had fun putting why I love being a Surf City mom into words.

Aww shucks...

Ya know what? My dad actually did know Corky 'back in the day'. Of ocurse my dad wasn't surfer. He was more the guy with the cool hot-rod who just hung around and looked at the girls in bikinis.....

I took my boys pics on Corky's cement square too.....funny

Is Corky the coolest dude ever?!? He worked at a surf shop on main a few years back and I bought a hat from him. I still have it.

Sorry, I made a comment here but it must have gotten lost *(
Thanks or the linkie and the nice words. I like Corky. He's an HB icon.
