As the days passed by, Jay afterall got better from his unexpected illness. It was one of those trials in life that test what you are made of and with alot of support from friends and family things turned out OK. Now that the tough part is over, we are receiving the bills from the hospital, interestingly enough, when you rack up a $120,000 bill without insurance, they deduct %90. That is still around $12,000. Another thing to consider when you are traveling is travel insurance, but don't let them fool you, the insurance is only good for the dates specified by the initial travel itinerary, if you make a change they don't carry the insurance over to the next leg of the trip, be careful of that.
I am home and I am ready to get back to building boards. With renewed excitement and a trip to TAP Plastics, I can get back to building the next round of MST Husks and Grellboards combo. The new boards are UHMW bases, with an epoxy, carbon fiber, fiberglass construction. The new boards are super strong, lightweight, wider to accomodate a real foot size and flexible the way a modern snurfer should be.
Meanwhile, here in California, it is hot, dry and we need water. People are changing habits to conserve water, the latest thing I heard today is in Cambria, they are renting portable toilets rather than use the water it takes to flush the household toilet. Interesting happenings, this is the stuff that makes California great, alot of innovation ahead.
