Great, always better there than Rufus. Watch out for all the thistle bush thorns in the grass near the swingset, they go right thru booties and bladders, bring a rake or a repair kit!

Already killed my main bladder - maybe bring a blue tarp to pump up on - those prickers are everywhere...

Really V? I view it as just the opposite. (?) Shorter drive. No thistles. No blue tarp. Easy self launch/land. Nice swell for early Spring and the last 3 Rufus sessions this week alone have been sunny and just lit. Rosey blows, in a good way, but there are moments that if shit goes sideways out in the middle......you're a long way from home. Shocked Why no Rufus love?

Temira has some love for Rufus, at least for Sunday.

Sunday sees the leftovers from that system combine with building high pressure for some decent water time. Wind will be gusty 10-14 in the western Gorge with 22-25 near Lyle and 27-30 at Maryhill. Less further east.

NOAA agrees.

.SUNDAY...PARTLY CLOUDY. A 20 PERCENT CHANCE OF SHOWERS IN THE
MORNING. HIGHS 60 TO 65. WEST WIND 15 TO 20 MPH. GUSTS AROUND
30 MPH IN THE AFTERNOON.

Rufus HAS been pretty good this week early, but turns NW and funky up and down in the afternoons where Rosie gets good in the afternoons, blower steady and uncrowded with everyone settling for Rufus caca! Love having those Arlington swells uncluttered! Should be good again this weekend at both places.
