Save Butter

276

another great surfing day. everybody thought the waves were going to drop today but it didn’t. it was still solid 3-5′ and going off! surfed 3 rounds and would have surfed 4 if the sun wasn’t burning my body so bad.

speaking of chickens. Butter has been injured. i came home 4 days ago and she couldn’t walk. something happened to her left leg so i’ve been hand feeding her and taking good care of her everyday. i didn’t think i’d ever talk to a chicken but i do. just by looking into her eyes, i could tell that she wants me to help her. so i’ve been feeding her watermelon, mango, cabbage, corn, and other yummy stuff.

i was watching her as she ate the mango. she would put her only good leg on the mango to keep it from moving while she ate it all. i seriously thought she was going to die a few days ago but she’s hanging on. i hope she gets better soon.

i checked diamond head this evening and it was still solid 4′ with some 5′ sets. totally uncrowded everywhere as surfers are already burnt out, or too scared of the big waves.

another great sunset to another great surfing day. surfed 3 rounds and am very satisfied. tomorrow still should have some nice waves and i’m hoping to dawn patrol. good night from hawaii!
