Question about fins

I'm new to SUPs and I've been learning about what certain fins are got. My board has one really big one in the center, with three at the back, the middle of those being larger.

I would love some insight on what fins I need or what is most helpful for balance and stuff.

But my real question is... What do you do with the fins when you pull it up on land? I'm afraid I'm going to break mine, but I can't shore my board without scraping them on the rocks. Especially the big one in the middle.

Do you flip your board over, fins up? Or are they a lot more sturdy than I fear? Can the board rest safely leaning on the fins?

How do you know you're ready for another pet after losing one?

How do you know when you're ready for another pet after losing one?

This weekend marks a year since losing my baby Nico (6 y/o) to kidney failure. It's still hard some days. My other cat, Alistair, is 15 and has some health problems that cause me worry, but I also worry about his mental health. Nico drove him crazy, they annoyed each other and chased each other around the apartment. But when they would curl up with each other, I knew they'd bonded. The quiet and emptiness he left behind is deafening at times.

My friend has a 6 week old kitten who needs a home. He's super cute and I want to bring him home, but I'm conflicted. Nico's loss still hurts. I'll never replace him...

But how did you know that you were ready to open your heart again? To bring a new baby into the family?
