Oh ya
Even though the whole summer went by with only 1 day of sailing, a few of the regulars have been around.
I think I saw Hardie the other day doing the husband thing, with 2 bikes on the back passing by True Value.
I know PaulF was lurking in the neighborhood, after a high school XC meet the other night. The big rig was witnessed over by Salt Pond with no one around.
I know OC has been trying to do that SUP thing, as witnessed by my son and I on the last night of summer vacation.
I know JE has been doing that SUP thing, as witnessed last Saturday.
I know PK can do that SUP thing if he went out the Friday night before.
I know Gil is not afraid of sharks as he’s be hanging out in their “alley”
I know I've said too much |

Had a great solo 5.2 Forest Session this afternoon. I could do flowers or skaket tomorrow afternoon if NW comes in as predicted. |

At 3ish, I said what the heck and went down to Skaket for a hour on a 5.0.
Good enough, ready for tomorrow.
Parking is free and the restrooms are open |

was over at the salt pond walking out to CG for some exercise after the predicted northerly failed to materialize at your local spot(or anywhere). had a nice visit with Hardie who was also hopeful. sat was o.k at WDB, usual gusty WSW, should have migrated to the east. |

Yea was at Corp. There was some crummy wind. If you had the right sail/board combo ,at the right time ( not me), there was some sailing to be had. Suzie Q, Irish Jerry, Matt ( local) ,and myself. Matt got some, Suzie a bit, and Irish Jerry was going out again as I was leaving, around 6pm. Water was so warm, people swimming, wedding on the beach, some small waves.
Revenge!

We too had a little sail size issue - 5.0 immediately to a 4.2 then passed by a kiter with long blond hair required going back to a 5.0. After that, it was flat out for the rest of the afternoon
Hardie, thanks for your generosity!. The 4.7 is fantastic!
