New AC

Replacing the AC in the bedroom, just in time I think.  Hit it early this morning only to be disappointed with a dropping swell.  Not much crowd but a little windy and only one good set in the first 2 hours.  Still some 3 footers but was hoping for more.  Happy Birthday Aunty Sue!

Missed it

Thought it was going to be smaller today but it got bigger!  Slept in and missed it.  Waaaaaahhhhhh!

New Swell

New swell is in but as usual everyone was expecting more and I do mean everyone because it got packed today.  Paddled to 2nd holes after and caught a bunch there.  Maybe the next swell will be bigger.

How's the crowd?

Fun waves

Fun waves this morning.  Beautiful, glassy conditions and light crowd.  More on the way.

Waves coming.

Pat Caldwell says waves are coming!  2 new swells, Thursday then Tuesday.  Nice.

Full weekend

Saiko Happy with present
Weekend full of non-stop activity.  Birthday, beach BBQ's, lunches, hiking, etc.  Little bit of everything except waves.  Need a new swell. 

Saw the Black Pearl ship outside of Mom and Dad's.  Might have to check it out soon.

Full Moon

Sure saw a lot of the moon rising and setting this weekend.

Flat Birthday

No waves.  Happy Birthday Saiko!

Hump Day

Tiny waves on Wednesday.  Glassy but the swell is pretty much gone.  Picked up Saiko and headed to Nordstrom Rack so she could find some sneakers. 

Tried out a new Izakaya named Tairyo near Ichiriki.  Tried a bunch of stuff and got stuffed!  Pretty good, Saiko said Osaka style.

Summer Surf

Typical summer waves the past couple days.  Surfed uncrowded and glassy Concessions and 2nd Holes yesterday.  Really nice conditions.

  Went to surf Bowls with Reid and Egan Inoue today.  First time surfing there and didn't get any good left sets but surprisingly caught quite a few waves.  Smaller lefts and bigger close out rights.  Fun to change it up.

Haleiwa Art Festival

Relaxing weekend.  Started with some crappy waves Saturday morning.  Headed out to Haleiwa for the art festival.  Quite a few artists and some tasty food with a nice crowd.  Headed around and stopped at Lani's for my Japanese tourist who wanted to see the honu.  There were some waves at Lani's and a few guys out but it was windy.

Went to Ward to see Grown Ups on Sunday, what a silly movie.  Great cast but just silly.

TGIF

End of another work week.  Looking forward to a relaxing weekend.....some surfing, watching some British Open.  Maybe take a drive to Haleiwa for the art festival.  Checking out the surf forecasts, doesn't sound like anything special anytime soon but at least it'll be rideable.

Check out how crowded Bowls is right now!

Hump Day

Fun, uncrowded waves today.  Almost 3' on the sets and clean conditions.  Lefts better than the rights.  Kooked out and went head over heels while dropping in on Jess.  The Fro guy dropped in on Joanie, haha.  Going to attend Mark's Mona Vie tasting thing tonight.

Sleep

Slept in this morning, hoping for more swell later in the week.  The winds have slacked and it could be a muggy few days.  Raining in Kaneohe this morning caused a cool double rainbow.

Got a pic of both ends but not the whole thing.

New Week

Congrats to Spain, what a party that must be!

Fun waves in town again this morning.  Smaller than the weekend but beautiful weather and clean conditions.  So stoked with the new X-1!
