Wednesday Dawn Patrol Report

This morning went for usual Wednesday early surf sesh.
6am pulled up to Diamond Head.
Not many people out... Maybe 4 guys.
Kinda shitty conditions.
Was about to go home and get creative, but Uncle Eddie
pulled up. I said I'll paddle out if you paddle out.

He said I'm going just for an hour.
I gotta try my new board.

We paddled out to Light House.
It was just him and I.
No one came out... from beginning to end.

We caught some fun ones.
I caught a good one and screamed like a girl.
It was worth it....
We talked about having a wife and family...
He's been married for 25 years and has 3 kids.
a 25 year old, 19, and 17.
He said he gave his wife plenty of reasons to leave him, but
"She believed in me"
Every time I see Eddie, he's got a new board and is trying to sell one...
I just noticed that.
