Waves were on Big Sunday and Chester the Monk Seal moved on. I went down at 10, looking for him and saw these waves. I came back for some bodysurfing about an hour later for an hour or so. There was no need to pray for waves. Lots of seaweed tangled around my feet and was kind of a hassle while waiting between waves. Very tiring, very enjoyable!

This leaky old 1956 faucet came right off the old galvanized pipe outside without me even having to strain a muscle. What luck! Actually I could probably just get a new gasket for it as it is in terrific condition but, I promise I won't bother. The new one was only 9 bucks.
Now the lizards that used to drink the drip drips will have to go to someone else's house for water.

Kailua wakes up as I jump on the H3 and head off to work. That is Mount Olomana on the right. I shot this out of the side window in the truck as I motored down the on ramp headed for Halawa.
I wandered down to the beach at about 10 on my bike to check the waves.. From Kalamas here's how it looked toward Lanikai and the Mokes.
A couple early beach goers enjoy some solitude before the rush of humanity decends into the cool refreshing waters of Kailua Bay.
A man enjoys some beachside literature down Kalamas way this morning. I rode home, jumped into my shorts and flip flops and headed back down for an hour or so in the waves. A perfect day!
Angel and her ball.
Waves roll in along the Kaiwi coastline just north of Sandy Beach.
No, not a rock wall. This is the lava shoreline down at Kaiwi on the east shore of O'ahu. I shot this looking straight down at the lava I was standing on.
