Funny. Had to laugh. Got palpably depressed today. Thought about paddleboarding in my drysuit. Thought about moving like I do this time every year. Instead, ate a big sandwich, watched half of Beetle Juice and took a nap. Thanks for the therapy.

I went at 2pm, no bueno. Better than sitting around the house, though.

I'd be interested in going to ft stevens today and ride waverunner out there. I'd like to do a downwinder some day with support. But, I want to see how stable it is first. Anyone interested?
FYI I've never been on the ocean with a small craft before.

A few of us got to enjoy a nice swim at Rufus yesterday when the wind died.

Planning to rinse and repeat today... Hopefully without the swim...

Rufus delivered yesterday to a great crowd of addicts. A bit wet but until it shut down was fairly clean and fun.

For today, according to Temira, Rufus later this afternoon looks promising if you guys are needing a fix.

Last weekend of summer.....get it!!!

Went camping at Pine Hollow reservoir. It was windy on Saturday so I thought id try. The wind was kinda funky but I made it work with 12M and a foil. 10mph with gust up to 20mph. I was just stoked to get a session!

Getting the new bike and trailer ready for snowkite season. The trailer is set up with an L shaped bench that folds down to a bed and has a RV furnace. It should make for a nice warn up shack for the trips to Skyline and Soldier Mtn.
