A good day..

In the morning a fine coffee making machine was acquired for $10 at a flea market

Erin picked up a new set of wheels from a garage sale 'round lunchtime

and by the afternoon the reef was two to three foot and offshore.. speed dialer heaven..
then sourdough bread baking by moonlight..

Feelings..

Cry..

this was taken from the surf and destory blog.. I'm a dog owner.. my cheeks are still wet..

Last Minutes with ODEN from phos pictures on Vimeo.

Nice..

How good is that feeling you get after you've had an grand little surf..

Homemade Things..

Haven't blogged for a while cause I've been having far to much fun in the real world..

Handplanes.. uber fun.. shape and go..


Vege garden.. grow what you eat.. slow food..

Alaia's.. learn to trim and the smile will appear..

Homebrew.. brew what you drink.. cider and ale in the barrel.. ginger beer and stout bottled off.. summer sorted..

I surfed today..

and it was sooo good...

Finless days..

I've been fortunate enough to be able to give a Derek Hynd shaped finless board a good workout over the last few weeks (thanks Mick).. so much fun, very, very addictive..

Pommie the mad bastard kneeboarder giving it a good thrashing at Tiber today

swell

been some crazy swell the last few days, some places getting it better than others.. been lucky to get a couple of days of primo right handers with only having to share it with a few good friends.. it helped to wash away the shit that flooded my world in the last few weeks..

..

The only thing you can truly control in life is how you react to a situation..

Death takes us all..

RIP Brother

Been sick..

Running..

There is over 20 kms of tracks crisscrossing the national park outside my front door with over 11 surf checks strategically placed along the way.. what the wind/swell is doing will dictate which direction I'll head on my morning run.. lifes good..

Warturd Cup..

The beer has been brought, babysitter trucked in, hope the rain eases up cause we're ready to party

Fresh fruit for rotten vegetables

apart from the HP longboarding (which I can never get my bearded head around.. ride a shortboard if you want do a superman airwalk you dickhead.. ) this is a fine film, of course it was always going to get my vote as it contains a grand mini-simmons section.. two thumbs up..

Today, today..

Alaia 2..

Woodworking.. pulled the tail in on this one to see.. to see..

Alaia 1..

Yesterday...

Tiber st..

The reefs today..

The left..

The right..

surfed the right, 6 to 8 ft, not another soul out.. 120 meters from where I sleep at night.. paradise

Shark..

I have finally managed to watch "sharkwater" (it always takes a while for me to grow the balls to watch anything that concerns sharks.. ignorance is bliss..) Now I plead with you all, please view it.. cause its a fine, fine movie..
Oh and also the above pic was stolen from the bang bang club blog, the pic just brought a grin to my face that is only surpassed by this pic from the mighty eff at monsterboards.org
