Nice work. I almost did that.
I hiked out to the columbia from Lewis and Clark state park.
Nice walk, nice beach. Wind was up and down.

Did you hike to the mouth of the Sandy? How long a hike is that? Gman and Mark went by there on a downwinder about 1 or so... |

I hope you know you guys ruined my day here I am bummed I am sitting on a plane on a beautiful Sunny sunday afternoon wishing I could be outside as opposed to sitting on this F*cking plane (which by the way, was delayed over 1.5 hours just sitting on the run way, because we were going to chicago and chicago was too windy to land) - so I am sitting on this plane, pissed cus I'm on a plane and its sunny and beautiful and even more pissed I am sitting there with my thumb up my ass waiting for us to get moving and I look out the window and what do I see - freaking kiteboarders!! EEErrrrr!!!! That is not what I needed. That was brutal.
Seriously though - I wish I could have got some to - looked pretty sweet!!! _________________ Still rockin gojos, *ssless chaps, and ankle weights! |
