Yeah it was pretty tough ... mastered the afternoon nap , how to properly sleep in a hammock and how to make the perfect caiparinha . The kiting was pretty good as well

I'd be in as well if theres room for sat .... I'll dazzle you guys with tales of magic vanishing brazillian bikinis and soccer matches where watching the game isn't as important avoiding overhead rockets , pick pockets and airborn cups of urine !!!

Dan-O is OK with 10:30am at the Whiskey Creek Gas Station. Talk to him for a ride to the station. I will drive to the lake from there.

My board sure has more video time than I did!!!
How was the weekend? How is the launch and beach?? We need a big cleanup party with the chain saws again?
I had Lukas on Sat and Erin's B-day on Sunday. Still working on the Deck and Shed, so not much Kitting for my in past few months. Things are going to change soon.
