Wind, Waves, & The Flu

Another week in Hawaii.  The weather is nice and there is no snow.  I miss the snow!  Julie got a promotion this week at work and is now the windsurfing manager.  I sold another Land Rover and have been working hard.  Julie and I both have Thursday's off work.  This past Thursday Julie managed to catch a bug and was sick all day.  After hanging around the house with her all day I did manage to get a few hours of surfing at Cockroach Bay in with Aaron in the evening.

Sunday Julie and I both got up early to get down to the beach and enjoy the windy conditions.  I finally managed to get a full day of kiteboarding in on my new kite setup and Julie was able to spend some time out on a windsurfing rig.  I still can't stay up wind on my kiteboard, but I'm up and riding and getting better each time I go out.  Julie is doing great and is now riding tiny boards with big sails.  Learning to water start has allowed her to enjoy the tiny boards.

Yesterday and today I've been quite sick, and oddly enough have the same symptoms that Julie had earlier:(  Please keep in touch as Julie and I really miss everyone back on the mainland and would love to hear about the goings on in your lives.
