Three Month Summer

There is this clover weed that has been taking over Hawaii.  I see it everywhere, including in my own yard!!!

Been researching how to kill it without killing the grass.  Feels like a science class.  And it’s working so far.

In between all the DIY stuff I’ve been doing, the ocean is for cleansing.

Now I’m changing out the electrical wires and switches on the boat.  If I see any sort of corrosion, I’m changing it.

You can tell summer is here when there are 40 surfers out at Bowls early in the morning.  Everybody wanting that perfect wave and will do anything to get it.

Barak on a beautiful one.

Derek on the next beautiful one.

The girls did good today.  Keeping busy, catching waves, and blending in.

Round 2:  Super fun Diamond Head.  Mighty Mouse connecting with this challenging wave.

Hawaii is the best place to be in the summer.  Warm weather, perfect conditions, and waves every single day for the next 3 months.
