Today we are going to sit by the pool
At least we were going to sit by the pool right after I had a surfing lesson. I signed up for a 10am lesson through Surf & Yoga in Kihei...about 10 mins away...2 hour lesson, then right to the pool. The lesson was great! Eddie, my instructor, had me up after only about 10 minutes …

A free trip to Hawaii. Wow, right? I don't know; I just wasn't feeling it. It's the middle of the school year. It's a long flight to just sit on the beach. I don't need any more skin cancer. It will probably be the first nice weather week in Chicago. I had all kinds of …
