Lost Boys & Co.

  Lost Boys & Co... D id you know who really picks the Happy Hour spots most weeks?  It turns out that Yoshi and LoLa usually conspire during the week on that Friday's spot.  Since we'll be kidnapping the Yoshi for King's Canyon this weekend it seemed like he'll be busy until the 17th.  But don't worry, they're already discussing the possibilities...  (#1  The Professor and Yoshi make the scene at Kevin Sousa's & Kira Lingman's night at Terranea) H azy sun with 10 miles visibility this morning.  Winds were on-shore by 3.7kts and the sea surface was smooth.  The air temperature was 68.8 and the water is 71.1.  Low tide was at 6:44am +0.6' and high tide was at 1:19pm +4.3'.  There's a small west swell out of 265º at 2.6' and even though it was 1' to 2' Doc Scale and the Professor proceeded to zip through a few sections and have a few laughs.  #3 features the Professor before he got his hair wet...  You really have to try ...

  Lost Boys & Co... #1)  D o we ever get tired of seeing Morgan on the nose?  The answer is:  NO!  Here we see her at Malibu negotiating competitors, disorganized canoe paddlers and eventually the pier.  The good news is that she was successful on all counts! 10 M iles visibility under hazy sun.  Wind was up early out of the NW by 5.1kts and the sea surface was rippled up.  The air temperature was 66.8 and the water is nice at 70.3.  Low tide was at 6:12am +0.2' and high tide is slated for 12:43pm +4.2'.  We have a west swell out of 261º at 2.6' and that's just about what it was... C harlie playing one of her originals(#2).  We need to learn a couple of her songs so that we can accompany her on our European tour in 2019.  Yes, we'll be joining Buck and the Button Box Brothers in Croatia, Slovenia and Amsterdam! #3 N ephew Kawika Ching characteristically in the right spot.  He's the man behind the "Surf Blessons" and yo...

  Lost Boys & Co... T he Dutch girls, Marijn and Milou, (who have become Charlie and Meek) have been having a great time surfing.  After two weeks they are paddling and standing up on their own!  Thanks to Yoshi and Morgan who've loaned us a couple of soft boards to get them hooked on the free ride...  (#1 is Charlie leading with her hands and doing the surf hula at Sapphire... F oggy, haze and 3 miles visibility.  Winds were light to moderate onshore with a slight ripple on the surface.  The air temperature was 66 and the water is 71.2.  Low tide was early at 5:42am +0.0' and high tide was at 12:10pm +4.2'.  We have a SSW swell out of 192º at 2.0' and it was a thumping 1' to 2' at most spots... (#2)  S o who leaves babies on the pier?  Gotta look carefully...  Where do babies hide?  They're everywhere... J etski with the second biggest bottle of Corona he's ever had (#3).  Great times at the Brother's 10th Anniversar...

  Lost Boys & Co... " Y ou say it's your birthday..."  Well it just happens to be Milou's birthday and here she is (#1) in California, in the sun, in a hammock...  We'd say that three for three is pretty good!  It also happens to be Cathy Carlisle's birthday!  She is also reclining having just completed knee surgery...  A glorious day to both... A gray Friday morning with winds from the NNW at 2 to 3kts.  The sea surface was smooth to glassy.  The air temp was 68.3 and the water is a summery 72.5.  High tide was at 10:41am +4.0' and low tide follows at 3:27pm +2.2'.  We have a SSW swell out of 205º at 3.6' and it was 3' to 4' breaking quick over some Longfellow sand bars.  You should've seen Jetski warping through some of those lefts.  If you haven't noticed Bacallao's act has really improved lately!  He's catching them early and figuratively and literally flying down the line...

  Lost Boys & Co... R eligion, science...  Science, religion...  We're all curious about where we came from.  Maybe curious about where we're going.  Over the years we've visited some of the great temples of religion, so we thought maybe we should visit one of the great temples of science.  A couple of hours away you can stroll into one of the modern wonders of the scientific world, the Hale Telescope on Mount Palomar. Russell Porter, illustrator, architect and engineer designed the dome (#1) and in the process created some cutaway illustrations that can't be matched even with CAD technology!  There are a couple of tours a day and it's so worth it to take a tour and listen to all of the science that this telescope (#2) has been part of.  It continues to operate over 300 nights a year and outfitted with modern electronics the 200" mirror continues to be on the cutting edge of astronomy... A lmost fog and hazy skies this morning with less than 1...

  Lost Boys & Co... S o when you're in Town and you're surfing Flies, you're at Kaka'ako Park.  So you head up Cooke St. make a right on Waimanu St. and when you get to 909 you find yourself at a bit of old Honolulu.  It's the Brewseum, where they have an outrageous amount of WWII memorabilia, mainly focusing on Pearl Harbor and the Pacific Theater of war.  Our Host, Glen Tomlinson, dresses like General MacArthur and if he'd had a pair of aviators and a corn cob pipe he would have been spooky right-on.  You tour the downstairs where everything is annotated and captioned, then you head up the stairs to the speakeasy.  No joke - you need a password and special knock before they let you in the bar.  They serve their own craft beers and vintage WWII drinks.  On Wednesday nights they have a four part trivia contest and you compete with your team.  Lots of fun and a relatively inexpensive way to have fun and slake your thirst in the process....
