Thank you for the heartfelt welcome home Black Bird Bookstore 📚❤️

Author Jaimal Yogis and I had a lot of fun meeting so many rad families at Black Bird Bookstore this weekend! Here’s a little moment from the storytime. Also: thanks for bringing some sun and swell when we were in town. Til next time - I 💙 SF

Wilmington NC, in addition to a Saltwater Buddha film screening this Saturday, Sunday I’ll be at Books-A-Million in Wilmington for a Mop story time. Can’t wait to see this area I’ve been hearing so much about and meet the families!

Dug out the Cannon to snap a few last session. Waves on the east coast! Excited to get a few in Wrightsville Beach this weekend. If you’re near there we’re doing a Saltwater Buddha screening Saturday at 4 pm at Flying Machine a @mop_rides reading at Books-A-Million at noon Sunday

It was an absolute treat to host Jaimal Yogis, screen his Saltwater Buddha film, and talk #surfing, the #ocean, and #spirituality here in Wilmington NC. Shout out to 💧 waterloop 💧 co-hosts N.C. Coastal Fed, Cape Fear Surfrider & Plastic Ocean Project.

Last stop on this west coast book tour I popped through the one and only @bookshopsc to sign the whole City of Dragons @mop_rides spectrum. Didn’t hurt there was a nice south pumping through. Thank to the super warm staff!

Reminder from @mop_rides: when those uncomfortable feelings come, take a breath and feel the sensations in your body…. They come and go like waves. Art by @mattallen_art from Mop Rides the Waves of Courage
