Hey I caught Mr. Cabaña Boy admiring the uniquely painted official Hukilau Necklace...
(he said something about lacing S.D's neck or something)

OH, Trader Jim, you have just made my NIGHT! You captured the Esther Williams dive!!
(I like how the 2nd shot, the mid-dive shot, has me just having hit the water, hence the tidal wave!)
We WERE as fabulous as we felt!!!
And the shot of BK, Hanford, Humu2, Pearly Shell and Unga is terrific! (Sick, my ass, girl - you look GREAT!)

Pulled into the driveway at 6:30 pm tonight...
After three days in Fort Lauderdale it became impossible to leave Florida. Sunday morning had us heading to beautiful South Beach for the day and then up to a Satellite Beach condo right on the beach from Sunday night until Thursday morning. Ah, falling asleep to the sound of waves and then waking up to a glassy head high ground swell...
Up to NASA on Thursday then off to JAX Beach that night... Friday was spent surfing a NE windswell at JAX pier until 3 then heading to an overnight in Georgia on the trek home....
What a great trip... such a shame to return to temps in the 50's!
Thanks all who made Hukilau possible and to all those who supported my fun in Florida with a purchase from my table!
I miss my neighbors Kick the Reverb, Bongofury, and my partner in crime... Poly Pop... residents of room 118.
Booty Beer Forever!
The cookies next to the Wreck Bar are the greatest in all of Florida, especially at 2:30 am!
I'll see you guys at Oasis... I'm going to try my hardest to get there!
Cabana Boy was worked up into a frenzy at the Mai Kai, but found a way to cool it off a bit...
Cabana Boy liked to sneak up on all the waitresses at the Mai Kai too...
Trying to cut in on Kick the Reverb's Mystery Dance...
After being unsuccessful the first time, he thought he'd try again with me under the disguise of the flash...
Last I heard, Cabana Boy smuggled himself on a plane to Southern California... maybe he'll show at Oasis?
A taste of the swell this past week at Cocoa Beach pier... a bit of high tide on it but fun nontheless... too bad we didn't get a Hukilau session at the beach! Hope Florida sliders found something at their home break this week... I enjoyed it!

Hanging out with the guys... Cabana Boy is always the life of the party...
Nectar of the gods... the Mystery Bowl...

The photo came out BEAUtifully! - just got 'em all developed yesterday. Now, getting 'em PhotoShopped down small enough to post (or even to email to a kind post-er) is another trick, since I lost PhotoShop when my harddrive got erased. grrrr....
But I'll do it. I got some nice shots, especially the octopus in your hat. (The one of the armadillo in your trousers didn't come out)

You might have basic Photo editing software built in your computer. On my Windows computer I double click on the photo I want. Left click on the photo so that "EDIT -among other things pops up) , click on Edit, go to Image in tool bar, go to Stretch/Skew and I type in 60% to reduce the image. Note; the software I am using states "Paint" don't worry, it works.

Also try Picasa2, which I think is put out by Google.
Its a free download and it allows the user to crop. Also its a great tool to find every photo in your computer so you don't have to hunt for what you are looking for.
