<P>Booger, nice start. As one of the main "targets" of said haters (verified by many friends, a business owner I like a lot, and random Facebook acquaintances) I chose to avoid said Boardie Bash...I have no time for mosquitoes. I hang around with eagles.<P>I am excited to read your trip report and just as excited to share with those here on the Yellow Board that the "2nd Annual Brasi's Bellyflop Challenge" raised over $700 for charity...specifically for St. Anthony's Soup Kitchen. This is a credit to the group roughly known as the Turtles and our friends, as well as Chris and Francine @ Seastar Inn. So many people helped and assisted I can't thank them all here...but it was a TEAM effort. We work together.<P>I have heard the boardie bash raised around $300. What a nice windfall between the two events for a great cause.<P>I'd like to thank Rob and Lisa for following our lead (and being shining examples of positivity for all to see) and helping out St. Anthony's.<P>And now, back to the regularly scheduled trip report by my fine friend Booger.
