Who amongst the Puffins doesn't remember young Jace Panebianco when he was the kid working at Windsurfing Hamptons? Who doesn't remember when they were taller than Jace? And who could forget the Puffin Party in 1993 when sometime after midnight Jace showed up at the back door of the Puffin House in his wetsuit, having just sailed the length of the bay to say Hi?
Jace is taller than all of us now. He's been a gin-u-wine pro windsurfer for quite some time, and the now-resident of Maui is even married. Jace reached out to PP with the above photo and this message:
"Love the peconic puffin in web form. Attached is a
photo of me and blue dog for the next issue!
I get married in January, and will be out here for the holidays. The family
and horde will arrive after the new year.
I thought of you guys the other day, there is a cereal out there called
'puffin's and its got a great logo. I saved a box and have it here
somewhere. I'll send it to you if you send me your address.
The flock of photos (of Jordan and Avery et. al...ed.) are amazing! They grow up so quick.
Also, check out www.thewindsurfingmovie.com.
Aloha,
Jace"
Thanks, Jace! We're familiar with Barbara's Puffins, a righteous line of cereal products. We're also looking forward to The Windsurfing Movie, which you are producing. Will we all be invited to the premiere?
Lastly, we hope we can get your Hawaiin ass on Peconic waters over the holidays. It's time to get back to your roots! Hopefully your hair won't ice up.
