Title
George Van Noy dries his Greebe and Moommy sweatshirt
Description
Adventuring for waves, Topanga Beach surfers Bill Cleary and George Van Noy found a point break at Maspalomas, Canary Islands. They were the first to surf the break, and lived in a shack they built from bamboo and palm fronds. George designed the shack by modifying a geodesic dome into a teepee. The shack withstood a hurricane. Bill Cleary's Hobie surfboard rests on the ground. A sweatshirt, drying on a stick, says, "Greebe and Moommy Topanga Beach Surf Club."
