Default Back from Hawaii -

well 2 weeks in the sun and fun... I have to admit, I had fun, but missed my dogs, my car (damn rental POS - HHR) and you guys !

got some surfing in, lots of boogie boarding, sight seeing, snorkeling, whale watching, swimming with turtles, plenty of relax time, good food, and lots of time with the wife and kids.

Here are my kids at their first time out surfing... very proud of them!! (no pics of the old man...he is hideous looking in shorts!!!)

Welcome new members and hello old friends!!

(ps.... anyone interested in a GT2 wing? - makes a terrible surfboard! - too big!!)

Hey Ed, glad to have you back.

Maybe the State of Washington needs an extra blade for snow plowing or landslide rubble removal.

Aloha! Are you pau hana now? Did my Brahs treat you okay out there?

By the way - got my car back. I'm really happy with the results. I posted a few pics in a thread a week back or so (and one made my avatar)...

Glad to have you back.

Rudy

Welcome back! Had to laugh at your comment regarding your rental HHR! Rentals are kind of a letdown after driving my P-car. Great photos!

No wonder why the forum has been quiet the last few weeks...

Those were taken by the surfing company (lessons) the lens was about the size of my thigh hooked to a digital Canon but I didnt see the model ... I got about 40 shots for $60.... maybe 10 are really nice. Worth it in my book. I took about 250 pictures and maybe 4-5 or really nice.... some have it, and some dont ---- so I dont mind paying for good pics

here are two others (obviously re-sized or they would be HUGE)
enjoy and thanks for the welcome backs!
