I went up there this afternoon to let the dog run around on Collins (dog was naked, I was fully clothed), and stopped at Reeder for a few minutes on my way out. Saw four kites total, two in the air at any given time. Looked pretty dodgy, for sure. At one point, a kite came down and almost took out a couple fishermen. Dude kept saying "Oops, sorry!" He looked pretty embarrassed...

So here is Monkey's kite dead on the water. This was before the wind picked up for his epic 5 minute sessions.

The sun just never got out from behind the clouds. Sad day.

ohh sure, post a picture of my gay pride kite in the water LOL

At any rate. I managed to avoid the gaunlet of fisherman and I did actually get to kiteboard which seems pretty difficult to do in this cloud ridden hell hole.

True enough and if I remember right you managed to not dump or almost dump your kite on the fishermen lol. Congrats. I know at least two of the others came real darn close to taking them out.

It's just big enough now that you can launch without standing in the water, but just barely.

Not clean at all. Bring a rake.

A few windows with enough wind to lawn mow with a 13M and a skimboard. We got wet and had a few laughs. It beat staying home and doing yard work.
