Sounds good. Might have to do that today since I rode at Sauvies (the gutter) yesterday for 6 hours with plenty of nasal enemas. Now my nose is an espresso machine of snot. MMMMM tasty. |

I would if I could but I can't... seriously its the worst possible day to take off from work for me, but I still considered it. Sauvies after hours will have to suffice.
Have fun at the coast guys. |

The best part about Ft. Stevens yesterday was a rare appearance by The D. That and the South Jizzle all the way to the Seaside Summerhouse sizzle.
That's 15 mizzles of shizzle! |

Amery, Erv, Ken, Jeff, Tim and I got to the spit around 3 today and did the downwinder to the wreck. Good first run, went to do it again and it died so we went to Manzo for a sunset sesh and got skunked. That salt water cleared the Sauvie sewage outta me like sauerkraut. Swell was only about 4 feet but still a good time. |

Ahhh man wish I coulda got some of that sweet wave action, work sucks! Had to settle for a late/short sesh at Sauvies until the wind cut out and I had one of my biggest walks of shame ever!
The shame! The shame! |

No Shame Dax.....
Shame would have been no riding at all, besides you were making the skim work for all it was worth with the small kite you were using. _________________ KB4C!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well cheers Steve, guess I was just bummed I only got 45 minutes of kiting in.
Might be awhile before us PDX'ers see Sauvies again... looks like it's back to highway 84... bummer with $3 a gallon. Oh well its worth it. |
