this past thanksgiving, i dusted off my camera and took photos of friends. i was sitting in the bushes on a private secret beach when i seen a longtime friend walk by. Keoni Watson is a hardcore waterman. super cool guy who everybody in hawaii respects. i remember surfing amateur contests with Keoni back in the late 1980’s. it’s always good to see him but this time, he didn’t see me because i wanted to shoot the real Keoni Watson.
he was with a couple kids and i’m guessing one or both of them are his. the next generation waterboys!
Keoni always giving a helping hand. hey Keoni, it was nice to see you spending some family time on thanksgiving day. i’m eyeing out molokai and will give you a call for tips before i decide to do it.
and is this your kid? gosh, this little grom was ripping! good to see you passing on your knowledge to the next generation. see you in the ocean.
