Often I refer to quilting as “a preferred sport”, after all we often gather as if the super bowl was around the corner (wait, maybe it is? - like TODAY!). Today on Oahu, John and I saw what could be the next level of extreme, when the word is Sports. Winds were wicked and the surf was up! Fifty a mile winds kept many indoors, but not these brave folks. The waves were 16 feet high (although they looked much higher to me) and the winds were blowing off shore. It looked like someone dumped dry ice into the ocean. One camera person said these conditions only occurred about three times a year. What we shortly realized was that we were watching the pros have at it. Both surfers and windsurfers were taking advantage of the situation. In fact, as we surveyed the situation, many camera people were there taking “movie – b roll”. WOW! It was fun and exhilarating to watch, but I think I prefer quilting as my sport of choice. |
