loaded up my cooler and headed to a special gathering with 4 of my closet friends i’ve known since i was 12 years old. it was kind of a special reunion. and one of them just moved literally 2 minutes away from my house so we’ll be doing this more often… it’s pretty cool because none of us do social media. so nobody was using their phones unless it was to play music from the 80’s. we talked and talked, and laughed and laughed. so good to see you guys and girls. we’re all getting older, and much more wiser. finally! haha… look at this photo Matsu sent me this morning. i can’t believe he ate this without me! when i was leaving for work this morning, a dog ran from across the street and jumped on me! a lost dog! i wanted to keep him!!! but the owner was located later so he’s home safely… paddling out early this morning with Okada-san and was greeted by Urashima Taro! we were so happy! this is a sign that this day will be amazing! yes, turtles bring good luck and are loved by us surfers… then it was time to get down to business. Okada-san surfing perfectly! surfing at Bowls with just a few guys out. having fun in the sun…great surfing Okada-san! keep on Looking Forward!!!
