I agree, the tent setup is awesome.
It looks like one of those MASH tents from the Korean War. They used heavy canvas though. But a similar structure.
I wonder if Alan Alda surfs.

Nice trip, George, and good surfing times, too. Hi to Blanca.
Like most labs, Dusty doesn't know he has only 3 legs...and cares less.
Say...How would you like to trade your elk camp tent for my vintage walleye tent??
See it and marvel...
It's a...ah...classic...I will even throw in the 30 gallong barrel stove and pipe sections to vent out the front.
Now HOW can you refuse such a deal?
I'll be camping on this same island this summer...although a little less rustic as back in the 60's. 
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

Doing what you love, with the people you love, in a place that you love. It would be ridiculous to ask for more. That is enjoying life!

drove by Supertubes on the way home from San Nicholas Island and it was SUPERTUBES!
even malibu was head high!
edit: OH, and you guys who can appreciate this. yesterday we stood on the south end of San Nic at the sandy beach and watched SOLID 15' faces wrap
around the east and west side of the island and EXPLODE when they refracted into each other at full speed. the
backwash was probably 30-35' high.
it was an awe inspiring site! i've never seen anything like it......

How? Beechcraft Baron with the owner of my company.
Why? Pre-construction meeting/check out the site/being a tourist and gotta do a tour of the island....
Pics? i didn't have the camera.... don't fret, waiting on them from others. will post them here ASAP.
edit: foto. not the same tail number so don't get all wet, Mengano!

south end of San Nic Island. keep in mind those big sea lions are about 10' in length. these fotos don't do justice to the awesome display.
