Hello all.

I'll let the pictures do the talking.  Still crushing it in Hawaii!

One other thing.  A few of my friends are doing some pretty cool stuff of their own at the moment and I'd like to share them with you. Long overdue.  My BC High pal Jon Contrado is an artist and never stops impressing me with his talents.  Great guy.  Great artist.  You can see his work here:

Also, there is my childhood next door neighbor and friend Jenna Bortolotti.  She is a very talented singer/songwriter out of Boston.  If you are in the area, catch her next show!  If not, you can find her online too.

RELAXING BEFORE CLIMBING UP THE SIDE OF A MOUNTAIN TO GET OUT OF THE JUNGLE!

WEST COAST BEACH

MOUNTAINS COMING OUT OF THE OCEAN!

REMINDS ME OF THE PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY.  NO HIGHWAY HERE THOUGH.  JUST THE VIEWS.

THAT'S A WAVE LANDING ON ME!  I WAS WORKING TO GET A SHOT OF THE COASTLINE AND NEVER SAW IT COMING!  YIKES!  KNOCKED ME ON MY BEHIND!

CHECKING OUT A FEW WAVES BEFORE SUNSET

HELLO HAWAII!

SPYING ON SOME SURFERS AND THE SUNSET

LAST FEW MOMENTS OF DAY

EVERY STROKE IS AN OPPORTUNITY. GOOD NIGHT.
