Fauntleroy’s Ron Richardson sent that Thanksgiving Eve photo, along with the next one and the story that follows:

Jason, a Fauntleroy resident, brings his paddle board to Fauntleroy Cove two or three times a week.

Wednesday is a perfect day for Jason to share the cove with the Washington State Ferries. Jason works for REI and is obviously very proficient with one of their new product lines. The board can be navigated and propelled by a single long paddle or it can be rigged with a sail to use as a wind surf outfit. Folks in Fauntleroy are used to seeing Jason aboard his rig in fair weather and foul. Look for him around Alki as well.
