Rowena niceness today, wish I had pics, some folks on Razors and a Rally joined us after an hour on so and we had a blast.
Swell, flat water lagoons, surprisingly consistent, especially on Oregon side.
All in all a great "midweekend" Metaldog and Burntviper and the honeymoon suiteness

Thanks for the shout out Airon. Put that survival pack together at the tutelage of another kiter after a scare this spring. Compact swim fins, flares, PLB, cell phone and marine whistle lol. Sounds dorky but truth is it is such a peace of mind when in the mighty Columbia or coast solo and it is so light I forget its there. Except in the back of my mind.

is PLB a personal locator beacon?
Good idea, I think I'll put one of those together.
Bummed I didn't get on the river today, but between all the mtn biking and kiting, my legs are toast.

| Yes Shiver. PLB from REI. Small, light, waterproof and does not need line of sight.
