The Latest Update

Tuesday, September 26th, 2006

So I’ve managed to restore the texts of my lost posts and they tell us the pictures will be available soon. Unfortunately, with all the time spent on retrieving my data, I’ve fallen terribly behind on my posts.

We’re currently in Maui and will be heading to Honolulu tomorrow and Fiji in a few days. Hopefully, I’ll have time to catch up on my posts then. We’re having a great time surfing, windsurfing and generally relaxing. More to follow…

Cheers to everyone, we miss you all!

They assure us that they are doing everything they can to restore the lost entries, but I may have to redo them. Fortunately, I have most of them on disk (minus the pictures), but it’s gonna be a lot of work!! I think I’ll be shopping around for a new website. Stay tuned for details…
