Sustainable living in NS



Well, Just so you know, Ashela and I just bought the site for our new home in Nova Scotia.
It's near Halifax but in the country with heaps of surf near by so we're stoked. Here is a view that we have from the top of the property down to the waterfront where the property ends. I've always dreamt of having a place close to here as a kid when we all got into surfing. Now it's finally a reality even though back then it was way cheaper!!
Anyway, enjoy the view and maybe you'll be a guest there some day. The shack on it isn't quite liveable but we'll fix'er up and then add our own little place with the goal of creating (as much as possible) a sustainable living scenario there for power, food etc. Should be a fun project!

Good times







Matt Mays, a well known musician in Canada and surfing friend of many in NS came out to hang with us and write music for my next Canadian surf film. So far we got a couple killer tracks done and lots of good jam sessions with Mike and local Hawaiian musician, Flo. It took a few Pipeline porters to get the job done but it was worth it.
Also here's Mike and Mason with the Jujitsu attack pose, Riley getting a bath from mom and me on the beach

Another day at the beach







Ashela getting some wave action in between working from 3am to whenever! Riley not looking too concerned as long as there's boob near by.

Riley on his first out of body surf experience - out of Ashela's body anyway.

Hanalei update





Riley on the beach. Only one more week of Kaua'i paradise and then we're back to NS paradise.
Also here's some shots of Jenny and her sister (Riley's newest girlfriend).
Not sure how we'll replace beach walks and the surf to put Riley to sleep with?
