ghost sailboat atop the reef @ baby beach...



here's the rescue of the crew from the above sailboat that washed up at baby beach...




my costume requires stilettos so I'm going to suck it up and hit the streets of lahaina. lucky for me a piece of eye candy offered to be my crutch. "but of course" - how could I say no?

fashion & first aid merge as my silk scarf becomes a compression bandage

yes, I'm elevating, ibuprophening, whining. wish I had an epic story for you but it's like so many people I saw while growing up who break their legs slipping on the ice in the street, in the bano, getting off the bus. it was white water that took me out, twisted me up, stuffed the mast into the reef and made me yelp in pain.

will this influence how I feel about the quad? it's like any new relationship - there are moments of 'whooohooo' and moments of 'you're kidding me, right?' and now that there's no windsurfing for me (until ?) so I'll finish my 75 simmer quad flywave  project.

the awt is doing its best to run heats, the wind hasn't cooperated, it rained today which produced gorgeous rainbows, I heard some grumbling over yesterday's lack of wind as sailors were forced to go out. check out the live action. it was fun volunteering for a couple of days. photos compliment of ben. btw he looks amazing, is healing quickly and it is wonderful to have he and julia back on island.
