Grandpa Rides the Big Wave

A cheerful grandpa glides across a giant curl of water. His bushy beard flows like a little flag while he balances on a long surfboard. One hand reaches forward in a steady stop sign pose; the other stretches wide for balance. His eyes shine, and his toes grip the board as the wave makes a foamy tunnel.

He wears a snug T-shirt and knee-length shorts, ready for splashy turns. Bold lines in the wave swoosh over his head and crash into bubbly drops by the tail of the board. The grandpa leans into the ride with a wide, open-mouthed grin, enjoying his retired day at the beach. Color the water bright blues, the board sunny and bold, and his beard silver or sandy brown.

Fun Fact!

In the UK, retirees are often affectionately referred to as OAPs (Old-Age Pensioners).
