laojia: thanks!

It was a funky log shape, but that's all part of the fun of finding the tiki in it!

Andy: Thanks bruddah! I Had to get it out of the garage finally so I can make room for all the other logs sitting out in the rain.
Still some big ones out there, so you will be seeing more of them here this summer.

Rhys: Thanks for stopping by! I appreciate the support on this buggah... he turned out alright.

For sure a relaxed posture about him, so much so that he likes to fall over backwards! I may have to make a little stand for him and screw him down to help him stand.
Hopefully this week we can get temps back into the 60's so I can stain him.

30's, yea... not too many more months left until 40. I feel it sometimes. Did some damage over the years skateboarding and snowboarding, and it catches up with you sometimes.
For the most part, surfing is low impact and actually gets me in better shape. I can tell how long of a winter it has been that first time of the season on the surfboard.
Wearing all that rubber doesn't help much for flexibility either... 5 mil gloves, 7 mil boots, 6/4 hooded wettie. We should be in 4/3 wetties very soon... water is getting into the high 40's.

Absolute heaven in SoCal last week with water temps around 57... barefoot in a 4/3 and loving it! Had a fun little session with KuKu at Newport Beach.

Looks like some freshwater sliders here this week, not 20 foot, but we'll take waist to chest any day!

Hope you have a good fall/winter season!
