super stoked to see taiwan going off last typhoon. i know i would love that right hander! thanks Keith for the photo and hope to make it over there this year. in fact, i have 3 day vacation from july 22-25 and i’m flying to where ever has the best waves. those 3 days i dedicated to surf all day so where i end up is still a mystery. only mother nature knows. can’t wait!

this is the last piece of the ono we caught. i decided to pan fry it with just a little hawaiian salt and pepper for lunch.

i stopped by my grandpa’s house yesterday to say hello. i still can’t believe he’s 95 years old and very healthy. he finally turned in his driving license because he said he doesn’t want to accidentally hurt anybody. kind decision grandpa! and hey grandpa, i hope i look as good as you when i’m 95 years old.
