12:20 noon right now am leaving for Cascade Locks to meet up with Mark for car shuttle back to Viento to start downwinder.

If you're interested, we should be ready to roll from Viento by 1:15-1:30pm.

Call me or meet us at Viento. Still blowing 26-34 at Stevenson and 9-14 at Swell, so all signs for a good downwinder session from Viento to Cascade Locks.

**NOTE - This is an intermediate launch and run, with an intermediate to advanced landing. No rescue support, so we are all on our own, except for self rescuing over to the Oregon side to hitch a ride back to Viento or down to Cascade Locks.

Grassy knoll on the east end of the marina. Pretty money but watch out for the small trees and light poles on gusty landings. It's really easy for your kite to drop back in a lull and hook an outside line on a branch if you're not careful.

How come I always have the scary run ins with trees??? Rolling Eyes

Dude! Best birthday prefunk party I've ever been to.

Nothing but solid wind all the way down and with a strictly fun posse to ride with.

Glad to have had the opportunity to ride on your birthday Mark.
Hope the rest of your birthday went just as well.

Thanks Carol, but it was actually Mark's Birthday.

Wish I could kite on the water on my birthday, but Feb usually means a session on the mountain for me.
