Aloha Seeks!

That's a sandbar break, not much of a paddleout, but shot with a zoom.

I'm beat.

Two and a half straight days of surf here out of the east/southeast with comfortable water temps in the 60's.
I surfed 3 hours Tuesday night, 4 hours Wednesday morning, did some work to pay bills and then surfed for another 3 1/2 hours until dark.

Marathon sessions like these are rare here on the lakes. Usually its a one day event.

But this was fun. Tired, but recharged in mind, body and spirit.

I'm really looking forward to 2009 already.

I have some great ideas for next year's work that will start in December. The next month will be spent in libraries doing research and sketches.
Then the long cold winter in a warm and cozy studio.
Big events to bust out the new work next year including Hukilau 2009 and Tiki Oasis 2009. And lots of smaller events in between.
I look forward to seeing familiar faces and meeting new friends!

I've been editing pictures for my portfolio the last couple of weeks and here is a shot of another watercraft.
This canoe sold at the Forbidden Island parking lot sale.
