Surfed Bowls this morning.  Chest high and very good conditions.  My new board feels like riding a wild horse.  I’m trying to hold on!

Check out this new sticker I just got.  Two of the biggest projects of my life combined into ONE.  “We are One, and Go-Naminori.”  When ever I look at this sticker, it will bring me JOY!  

About 2000 workers at the Hilton Hawaiian Village hotel are on strike now.  I can understand both sides and hope there is a solution soon.  

For the hotel workers, going on strike means not getting paid now.  For the hotels, workers on strike means no hotel service now.  Everybody loses.  

So grateful for Neal Miyake to keep on sending me photos.  This makes me want to surf more and more.  

This photo popped up on my phone.  I took the boys to hunt lobsters when they were young and Seth grabbed the biggest one.  I told them to hold it up for a photo, and then put it back in the ocean.  It’s called “catch and release.”

Hawaiian Monk Seal:  One of the most endangered species in the world.

Good morning 3am.
North shore 2-4′ and good.
Ala Moana chest high and good.
Diamond Head shoulder high and good.
Trade winds at 20mph.
Sunny and warm.
Going to the sea.
Have a wonderful day!

Round 1 at Bowls this morning.  Chest high sets and pretty good.  Drove past Diamond Head this afternoon for Round 2 and it was looking good.

My sisters backyard is amazing.  Perfect for the kids to slide down, ride bike, wrestle, and play in the stream.  Can’t beat it.

And also a gathering place for the huge family and friends.  I feel so old now watching these kids growing up into fine young men.  They are all respectful, strong minded, and very kind hearted.

This summer was a good one.  Got to see some amazing displays of nature.

Surfed Big Rights way more than I did last year.  Much bigger and better.

Being a tourist must be pretty fun in Hawaii.

Back in the Day:  Toda-san with the big wahoo caught in the Indian Ocean.  Sashimi party followed!
