OBX summer vacation - sailing, surfing, SUPing, SUP sailing, SUP surfing...




Another 2 weeks in Avon in the books.  I'm adding this entry weeks later so my memory is fuzy - but we scored pretty good wind, waves and weather for the trip.  We stayed right on the water in Island Creek a few doors down from Jim.   It was a tight squeeze with my parents and Mike's family all in the same house!  (my parents left before the 1st week ended)...but we survived the rest.  Memorable sessions included light wind wave riding on my new SUP.  I was very close to putting down some cash for a new kite, but the paddle board had my name on it.  It would be multifunctional and get me out on the ocean more often.  Got the kids out in the sound much more often than before (including Liam).  Phil and his friend Leah stopped by and sailed a bunch too.
