Father and son.
Awesome day yesterday in pretty strong surf pushing Matthew around on a board. He’s fearless.
We had a ton of fun and I’m a proud papa.

Well, so much for discipline…

Looking at the lake…
It’s the first day of the year that I’ve gotten some windsurfing lust. Finally, the weather is getting nicer. It’s going to be about 70 degrees today. The water is pure blue and it is blowing pretty good outisde — the Michigan City lighthouse (about two miles away) is showing winds steady at 25 knots with [...]

Howling.
We had a pretty incredible windsurfing weekend this past weekend. Sunday was very mellow but Saturday presented conditions that I’ve seldom seen around here, at least in the summer time. We had sustained winds at over 20 knots for much of the day, and over 30 knots for quite some time.
The above graph shows the [...]

Waiting impatiently.
Well, once again it has been quite a well since I have written. My time has been focused almost solely on work, which has been really busy, and on a recent family trip to Florida for spring break. The first trip to Disney! Whoa. That was an eye-opening experience. I’ll post photos in the [...]

A few random things.
Wicked
We went to see Wicked yesterday and I was pretty blown away by how great it is. It’s been a while since I’ve seen a musical that I thought was this good — probably years ago, when I saw Rent. I ordered the sheet music and I’m excited to fiddle around with it. The Chicago leads — Kristy [...]

Put your feet out on the rail.
Incredible, incredible morning on the lake today. The wind was from the North at about 15 knots. North wind can be tricky because of the chop it generates (although around here because of the angle of our beach, a Northwest wind is worse), and this morning there were 2-3 foot waves breaking which made launching [...]

Wow. Look is what is on the other side of that path.

A letter.
There are many things I want to write, and more things I want to say, and I’m not sure how to begin, or where to end, or what to do in the middle.
I came home tonight to the incredible sight of the sun meeting the water outside of my front door. Everything in my little [...]
