kurushi….. ahhh…. i want to surf!!!

good morning. hey, where is the rain? it supposed to rain hard from last night. i just looked outside and the weather is looking good. the waves on the north shore are junk. north winds so onshore and cold. town is super clean. waist high and perfect. better go surf and enjoy this weather now because it’s forecasted to change really soon. have a nice day!!!

yesterday was the first time i drove down to the beach since i got my eye surgery. that’s 8 days!! seemed like months. diamond head looked really fun. chest high, 20 guys out, and really sunny!!! the water looked super clean too. but after our rain today and tomorrow, it won’t be clean anymore….

i walked into the ocean until my neck sticking my head and right hand out of the water. i had to keep my eye and hand dry. it felt weird, but i guess it was better than nothing…

last night, i stopped by to have a couple of beers with my friend tats, or “eddie”. it was his birthday!! can you believe i’ve known tats for 27 years? yeah, we go way back into the days!!! game world? point after? fights? vw races? fishing? acting crazy? yeah, we did everything… congratulations tats!!!

and last, my friend russ is in a contemporary hawaiian music band called Ocean’s Fire. their playing live this friday night at Margaritas Beach Bar in Waikiki. go check them out!!

here’s some big news. Kat is playing live in okinawa!!! yup, november 14th she will be playing at the Cotonoha Artspace + Cafe. i love Kat’s music because she has such a great voice and her lyrics are incredible. plus, Kat is such a nice person. so to all my okinawa friends, go check out Kat playing live and request a song for me. i think it’s called “Thank you for thinking of me”. she played that song for us at a party a few years ago and it’s still stuck in my head. Go KAT!!!
