One of the best stretches of beach in Southern California is ironically located at the San Onofre nuclear plant. One tends to think of surfing as a meditation with nature, but this is not always the case. Especially when you are sitting atop your board looking at the twin tits of the San Onofre power plant while waiting for the next big swell. The power plant design was truly surreal, especially when viewed from Interstate 5.
Happily, the power plant was decommissioned in 2013, and one would hope the waves are even better now. Who really knows the intricacies of wave generation though? Most kids learn how to generate waves in a bathtub or by doing a cannonball leap into the water, but perhaps the merger of warm and cold water creates its own mysterious ebbs and flows capable of catapulting you into space.
This surfer post-modern surfer wagon was built on a Chevrolet Suburban in Southern California. Stripped down and ready for action, this wagon isn’t hiding occupants behind deeply tinted window glass. Most likely, the owners window is rolled down cruising to and fro the beach, all the better to catch a whiff of the tide. (Is it rising or falling?)
Ride the wave with me, and know thy people.
This article about Car Culture is inscribed on blockchain, ensuring that it can be read for another hundred years and probably more. A new form (blockchain) for an old function—to educate and inform the future.
The accompanying CarMania artwork celebrating this Ford woodie wagon and surfing culture is also stored on blockchain. I inscribed this onchain as a sacred sign for the next generation of surfers who ride the elemental wave. Is this limited edition NFT the new collectible?

With the Beach Boys playing in the background, the Gidget novel in print, highway access to Malibu beach, and a surplus of inexpensive wooden-bodied utility vehicles to haul their hollow boards, the surfing culture boomed.

The early automotive adventurers weren't just taking the Grand Tour for the rite of passage, the educational experiences, and the newfound freedoms that traveling on the continent offered. Half the fun of taking the Grand Tour at the turn of the twentieth century was the thrill of motoring.
