.news from all over.

Yesterday my parents and I went down to wave signs with Della. How very political of me. Daniel Inouye was there too and we spent a good hour in the hot, hot afternoon being ignored by drivers on cell phones. I now have a much greater appreciation [or is it commiseration?] for [political] sign-wavers. I guess that means I'll be waving at the [weird] Linda Lingle sign waver who stands by his lonesome with seven signs on the Pali at 5-ish in the a.m.
If you live in the Makiki district vote for Della Au Bellati!

Paddled out a bit late this morning, around 7:30. I don't know if it's the fact that it was FLAT all week or that I was on a shortboard but the waves appeared rather large. Conditions were good though and there were only 4 or 5 guys out.
This is actually my first winter HOME and if the south shore would stay in the 1-2 foot range I think I could actually get used to surfing in empty, clean conditions while everyone flocks to country. Mari wanted to surf North Shore this Sunday but if it's in the 3-5 foot range I think even the "smaller" breaks might be too large for me. Yikes. At least everyone will be over yonder rather than invading my personal bubble, right?

Must go to sleep so I can get up early, get in, and get out and go teach lessons. It's the first Saturday lessons of the Fall session [since the pools been closed for 2.5 weeks] and I have SIX kiddies in my level 1 class including one whose autistic and gets his own special helper. Arghhhhhhhh.
