And surfers don't even care.
Now, surfers are undeniably and indubitably selfish. Leaving families behind without care or thought when the waves pump. Catching one, back paddling the poor soul bobbing for hours and catching another one. Lying, cheating, fibbing and fudging all to “get theirs.”
And, thus, it is not surprising that California’s surfers are entirely unmoved by the fact that the recent “monster swell” is threatening the Frank Lloyd Wright masterpiece The Walker House there on Carmel Point.
This is the only house that the revered architect ever built ocean-front and just sold, recently, for the low, low price of $22 million.

According to Artnet:
The famed architect designed the house to resemble a ship’s bow cutting through water, a nod to his distinctive practice of integrating structures into their natural surroundings. The striking feature is made possible by the hexagonal floor plan of the triangular living room, allowing for spectacular views of waves crashing onto rocks nearby.
Alas, those waves have gotten bigger and meaner. Funner, though, for surfers who don’t care that a house neighboring the Wright gem recently had its windows bashed out due “heavy surf.”
Surfers, man.
Total dicks.
I too like things I can’t afford
Beachgrit and Frank Lloyd Wright shouldn’t be mentioned on the same page…but there you go
BG has Negs and the Wright House has a sturdy seawall. There will be no breaches!

Heal The Bay. The Peeps demand More Action. Save The Sardines!
A few choice words written with SexWax might have saved those windows.
duct tape…
Can’t the owners just pay the waves to go somewhere else?
Just get a beach burrito, sheesh, that’s why Kelly’s the goat and Frank isn’t.
If you don’t use beach burritos, you end up with seashore salsa.
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
My name is kelly slater, goat of goats.
Look upon my world titles, ye mighty and despair!
