A little get together of old friends up top at the palapa on sat. afternoon, the point way below.

Matt Moore, aka ''Webster'' was at a garage sale 2 doors down from his house in Carp yesterday morning and there was a 1980's board he made , and while he's chekin it out the guy who lives 3 doors down from him comes up and says I have one of your boards in my garage , so Matt says how long and the guys says it's a 8'0'' Gun! so Matt says lets go check it , This is the board the guy just gives it to him, too much! the thing is cherry and was glassed by Tim Bowler at Shapes and Hulls, made around 1976 it's been sitting 3 doors down for 35 years.



Nice sunset with the pig just about done.



Pig Roast Box , this thing really works good!




Graham and I pulled the guest of honor out at sunset, and a big old Pork feast was on. Good to see so many old friends from a place that used to be a lot smaller and more down home like everywhere else in California, thanks to Los Padres Outfitters and the Brown Bros. for the great Ho Down.
