Pipeline





The other day when we went to Foodland to get some groceries, we stoped by Pipeline to check out the waves since a storm was starting to roll in. They were the BIGGEST waves I have ever seen, I thought for sure some people were going to die out of all of those crazy people out there surfing! The ocean was silver and the waves were so HUGE that they were making billowing mist everywhere, it was the prettiest sight ever! and what did I not have around my neck... that blasted camera. Dang it! That moment is forever embedded in my head, at least I hope it stays because I don't think I will ever see that again. Since then we have visited Pipeline everyday to watch the surf competition and hope to see some massive waves again. Here are a few pics from hanging out there. We found an almost dead crab that the girls thought was their little pet.

Those waves are huge!! I agree that people that surf those are crazy. It's a wonder that no one ends up dead from all the surfing. Wow, what memories are being made!!! Keep on having fun!! But make sure you don't forget those who are still here!!

Hmmmmmm. My view last Friday was significantly less beautiful. Perhaps I need to move to Hawaii . . .
