Columbia wasn't the only one. I was in Seaside and one guy on a 13m C4 (sorry, forgot your name) left to do a downwinder to Sunset.
I had a short session in the estuary, but the conditions weren't as good in there as I might have liked. It seemed a lot gustier, and there are a lot of trees in the water right now. I'd probably have done better with the downwinder, but this was my first time out since October, and I wanted to stay out of the surf until I knocked off some of the rust.
It was good anyway. I was already in Seaside for another reason, and my main goal was to see how warm I would stay with some of my new "colder water gear" - and that was a success (almost too warm).
