2-10-2012 DB's Dailies: RIP@RI, Rocky@KK, RI37@Alii Beach, T15M@WP, Kermit@KR, 2AW@Tracks, RO28@KoOlina

The day began at 0630, but it would be 1024 before I finally found a critter. It would prove to be RIP (RR70), 60 ft left of 1BS on Rabbit Island. It would take 3 hrs to finally get that ID. I'd last seen my first born, at RI, on 1-24-12. He would remain the rest of the day.

Posse member Gayle called at 1215 to report an animal thinking about hauling out to the Kokee Flats in Portlock. Of course my first thought was Irma, but lo and behold when I arrived at 1239, and looked from afar, I knew "that ain't no Irma". Maybe 2 Irma's , but nope... it was a very chunky Rocky (RH58). She was just a few feet from Irma's Grotto at the far end of the flats. The girl is definitely round & firm & fully packed. In case you are wondering , I've got my dollar on 5-11-12.

Dana called at 0818 to advise that RI37 was at Alii Beach, Haleiwa today. Communication with Kelly Girl, and confirming photos, by Elizabeth, said it was most definitely RI37.

While on the subject thanks to Debi Kelly for the photos, and the other responders who dealt with RI37 at Laniakea yesterday.

At 0840 Team Billand checked in with a report of T15M fronting #1706, and Kermit (R012) at Kermit's Reef on the west side of the Nimitz Jetty.

At 1338 the Billands found 2AW at Tracks.

At 1430, for the 3rd day in a row the Billands found Pohaku (R028) at Secret Beach, KoOlina, and once again they had to deal with guys that just won't play the game. Sad !

RIP DB's #1 son (reminds me of the old charlie chan movies)
