My daughter in law was visiting, so I took the morning off to go to the beach. She is pregnant so surfing was out of the question. So we settled for stand up paddling.
This is my wife in the middle and my daughter in law on the right and a friend who is an ex-world champion windsurfer. Just then the fire truck pulls up and the crew came out to train. They spend time running and swimming to stay in shape. I surf with a lot of these guys, and one of them is a good buddy of mine.

As you can see it was a great day to be training on the beach.
Fireman Craig hiding from my lens. He is also a great surfer and big wave charger.

Swimming laps and running.

So I offered them my boards, Fireman Craig jumps right on it being an experienced waterman. Craig, surfs, windsurfs and snowboards with me a lot. In the line up surfing you have police officers, fireman, doctors, construction worker and Realtors out in the water.

This fireman had never been on a board before, I missed some great shots of him up side down.

When you are in trouble, you really want these guys around. They put their lives on the line daily and keep us all safe. So it was a great day hanging out with the guys. They had to get back to work and so did I.

Driving by the Paia Fire Station their truck had not return, we had a lot of fun, it was a good on Maui.
