It was a windy morning from the start….. but luckily for us….. it was blowing in the right direction to keep the Vog out.  I used to wish for no wind days for Paddling ….. but with the volcanic eruption on the Big Island that sends nasty Vog our way continuing to be a problem, I am thankful for the trade winds!  When there is a calm morning ….. I will go out Paddling …. otherwise I am content with walking and swimming right now.  It’s just how it is.  I had five lovely turtles this morning!  The south swell has the water visibility compromised but at least I could see the turtles……. that is….. when they were right on me!  I didn’t mind!  The swim back from the point was a workout thanks to the wind.  It was a beautiful morning!
