While friends got the goods at Jones and the coast Friday, circumstances kept me close to home and so I took the opportunity to go for the mythical Willamette session, something I've always wanted to try (kite is the trusty 10m Fuse) *Photo is for your viewing pleasure only; I make no claims as to wind quality, session duration, nor endorse other crazy people like me trying the same thing...*

The speed boats added a certain "frogger" quality to session.

Milwaukie... there's a decent beach in front of the Waverly Country Club which we paddled to from the new boat launch park in Milwaukie.

Awh, "the Wave"!
During the breaks while off the water, did you order " a Bloody Mary, a steak sandwich and a steak sandwich" and put the tab on the Underhill's bill?
Rare and sweet session. More rare/exclusive than the Mile High Club.
