Haha, well said Nak. I might pass today. Got a bit of stuff to take care before hitting the winter ale fest
There might be some Southerlies at the coast on Sat though. _________________ The Slider Project, LLC

| I will see you there. Still have my gear in the car from yesterday. Went down there but it was way to gusty. What do you think about a Dalton down winder? |

Gene, you'll regret it! Looks pretty good out there today. 20 -25 at Skamania... The wind gods almost always deliver after a tease like yesterday. They feel bad about it.  |

Never piss off the wind gods by making a statement like this.  |

There was wind, but there was more wind upwind. So we motored off to Dalton to do the downwinder. Wind died there before we got going. Went back to RR, wind was very light but rideable. Figured it was going to die off before I could get out. ( I was right...) Some guys that went straight up to the volleyball courts got a session in before it died.
I'm done for now. Family obligations this weekend and then a 2 week work trip. Then Christmas, so probably my December session will be the two tacks I got in at Camas yesterday. Do two underpowered tacks count as a session?  |

No it won't. Unless you'll take lots more folks (me included) with you.  _________________ just wear sunscreen |
