Phill and Rich set up a SUP display at the Ocean Grove Festival today and the weather forecasters said rain.. They were wrong.. It was a beautiful day.

I was temped to sit with the kids and watch the clown.



I saw the local guy that does the disabled surfers thing.. and good on him I reckon.



I could see the SUP display in the distance because of the big Naish flag.



I followed the SUP boards along the footpath.



There they are.. Perfect timing because they were all set up.









There were lots of people interested in SUP.. and guess what.. the weather forecasters were right afterall... The rail hit without warning and it hit hard.



The rain soon left and the sun came back out.. and the bands played.. even in their wet socks..

Wow what a day!

DJ helped us out with finishing touches and then gave the thumbs up and we were away.

Huey threw everything at us and we still were inundated with people. When we were packing up at 4.00 there were plenty of people still wanting to talk to us.

The day was a massive success from an awarness, education point of view!

There were plenty of short and long boarders converted lol and Plenty of people coming to the Port Phillip Cup!

On a personal note I did a photographic display of coastal landscapes and SUP images. The real test of photography is even if you like the images will anyone else buy them.

Well it seems the landscapes were on the money they were selling 2 at a time until the printer died due to getting water logged, we did some green screen images as well.

The weather did make an impact and we have a water logged printer and screen but hopefully they will dry out!!!!!

Big thanks to DJ for his help today awesome effort.

Huge thanks to Kristi, Nesha and Niki for all thier help over the last week.

Rich you the man, produced the goods yet again.

Enough said pass the beer!
