April 5, 2020 I have already surfed in April as many times as all of March. The moon as we know is never still and it is still waxing, almost full. The wind has been down all day, the skies clear, so I decided to head to Anchors. I wish I knew the Hawaiian nameContinue reading “April 4-April 10, 2020”

March 28-April 3, 2020
“Lifeless in appearance, sluggish dazed spring approaches- They enter the new world naked, cold, uncertain of all save that they enter. All about them the cold, familiar wind-” “…breeding lilacs out of dead land, mixing memory and desire, stirring dull roots with spring rain.” Aperilis, the following, the next. Formerly the second month. This April,Continue reading “March 28-April 3, 2020”
February 22-February 28, 2020
February 23, 2020 7:10 am M– needed to surf before dawn today and C– couldn’t head out until after 10:00, so I made my own way down the east side. The wind was light, almost nonexistent, no clouds anywhere. Waiʻaleʻale was crystal clear looming over us all, the morning sun lighting up each of itsContinue reading “February 22-February 28, 2020”

February 16, 2020 I planned to meet M– at Mahaʻulepu this morning, at 8:00. High tide was a few minutes before midnight last night and low tide bottomed out just below 0 feet around 1:30 this afternoon. The moon is disappearing again, passed half, on its way to new. I didn’t even see it today.Continue reading “February 15-February 21, 2020”
February 8-February 14, 2020
February 8, 2020 S– decided to stay on the east side and M– was putting shingles on the roof of his rapidly emerging ʻohana unit so I headed to Mahaʻulepu by myself.

And the days lengthen, The sun is crawling back up the sky, But darkness still creeps into morning And stretches down into afternoon. *** When the Romans’ year was divided into 10, the winter existed of course but was blank, an unmarked span of time, too dark to think about, too cold to see onContinue reading “February 1-February 7, 2020”
January 29-January 31, 2020
January 30 2020 The crescent moon has been waxing all week, hanging low in the dusky sky, Venus shining brightly just below it. The second low tide today was shortly before 2:00 p.m. and bottomed out at .18 ft. We didn’t make it into the water until 3:00, riding the waves as we rode theContinue reading “January 29-January 31, 2020”
