Shots from about 7:30 am until 11:30 am on Thanksgiving day 2007.  That’s 2 days in a row, should prove that it doesn’t only break when I’m on the other side of the world.

Wednesday, November 21st, 2007

I just realized the reports are saying there’s a swell in VB…I’m working a half day today, so Hopefully I’ll make it down to 1st street around 1:00pm… 

I’m working on a couple of updates which include some photos from China, as well as a new gallery of some shot’s I’ve done for Classic Design Builders and a couple of Local Realtors.

It’s Hockey night in Norfolk…I have ticket Vouchers to give away, read the info on the right side of this page.

 stay tuned….

I’m back…bring on the flatness!

I’m back from China and I’d like to say Hello to all my new friends who might actually be checking out the site out there, hopefully I’ll have some of the few shots I took posted in the next day or two. I expect there will be no surf until at least Dec 8th when I leave for Hawaii…oh well, it could be worse.

ADMIRALS GAMES THIS WEEK ON WEDNESDAY, FRIDAY AND SATURDAY…I’LL BE GIVING AWAY VOUCHERS STARTING TONIGHT!!!!

November 11th – Still in China!

I should be home on Friday night. I actually got to go play Tourist for the first time yesterday and took a few photos, nothing spectacular, but the Summer Palace is gorgeous.  The plan was to go to the Great Wall today but that fell apart so Maybe I’ll have to volunteer to come back out here next summer and do that.

If anybody sees Patrick McClaughlin or Mickey McCarthy tell them Thanks for shooting the Admirals games for me. Also if you happen to run into my sister Mary at the mall tell her Happy Birthday :-)

Here’s a shot I took while walking around the summer Palace…I’ll try and post the rest, but with the speed of the internet around here, that probably won’t happen until I get home.

ARRRRRRRRRRRRGH!!!!

Tuesday, November 6th, 2007

Ok, so I expected the east coast to get some surf while I’m out here enjoying the Orient, if you can call it enjoying. I’ve seen nothing historic and taken no photos in 2 weeks, but I never expected to miss the surf of the century. The more photos that I see the more Bummed I get.  If you haven’t already checked it out go to www.SURFKDH.com and see what Ryan has posted and wait to see what Mickey has taken!

I’m staying out here an extra week until Nov 16, so Hopefully this weekend I’ll get out and see something worth taking pictures of, and possible post them so all of you people who are sick of looking at the epic surf can take a break from all that crap!

This does mean I will not be making the Reef contest this Saturday or the Military Surfing Championships in Nags head this weekend. 

If anybody wants to get rich out here, I suggest starting a vending machine business, you’d be the first.

Hope everyone is enjoying my misery…see ya in a couple of weeks and I’ll have more Admirals Tickets to give away when I get home.  Get out there this Wednesday and Friday and say hello to Mickey McCarthy.

Peace,

John
