last couple have been good
I've had to reevaluate my 52 degree position
when it's sunny
44 didn't seem bad at all
dreamy waves
warmer water and light winds help
A little too chilly with 40 mph wind

what great weather ,,
bluebird At Bailey ,
10' surf the next
anyone up for some Mt. St. Helens ?

Yep, while wearing my red snowboarding helmet, aka "gay purple bike helmet"

(had a nightmare last night: roommates tore up my 11m that I had drying in the living room during a party, YIKES Shocked!, was definitely good to wake up and see my kites unharmed Very Happy)

Good call to have somebody there to bail you out - or die with you! Very Happy
