				| You have no idea how much I wish I could but I'm busy tonight. Forecast isn't great but the Airport wind line reads 10 currently and it's usually a little weak on Northerlies. _________________

				| Ive been on the fence about it all afternoon.  Risk getting skunked vs getting work done and try to kite when its more promising is the big internal debate of the day... |  |

				| I posted this to another thread too, and even though it's probably too late to catch anybody before they drive out today .... 
 Flood stage is 16'.   Current reading is 15.5'.   See the link below for updates.

				| Water level is super high--literally less than 30 feet of beach... The fishermen were agro...
 And the wind was really fluky at the beach....
 
 But once you got up wind a little it was pretty fun.
 Just me, PDXF and Blokt.
 Consider the lawn mowed.
