pdxmonkeyboy, go easy on spikey boy, he's got "fever" and will do anything to get his fix.

Spike tie that surgical tubing around your upper arm, slap your veins and.............do yourself a favor and FORGET ABOUT IT! for today.
Maybe tomarrow....or not.

See you on the water. Very Happy

Just saw the zaffino forecast. Rain tomorrow, rain saturday night. Saturday morning seems the best for BOG. Monday drys out. The satellite shows weak systems IMHO.

Scared of a little bit of rain...Hell No.....I smell a storm session happening this saturday....
The gorge...well what can I say...The gorge is basically looking fu**ed for this weekend...
I'm thinking Selitz Bay for some southerlies on Saturday...But the tide might make it a challenge...
Rain - better not plan on staying dry....Besides, who wants to stay home watching saturday morning cartoons...
Maybe hit the casino (ching-ching) on the way back.... Wink

Thats what I'm talking.....But the decision will be made on Saturday morning (about 6:00 am when I let the dog out of the house to take a piss and check out the weather)...If the gorge blows than I guess I'm off to the gorge (Stevenson I hope but even Hood River or Lyle will also work).
But if the wind is flat @ the gorge than off to the coast I go...
Hell Yeah Elvis....
If your up for it, you can come with us to the coast....
Most likely Selitz bay...That place is pretty sick on a south wind...
But don't expect to kite in the Sun with chicks in Bikins scoping us out cause it aint gonna happen....Last time I was there w/ Takat (adam) and Tucker, we got drenched...All fu**'n soaked, cold and wet...The kite fly's just fine in the rain....as long as there is wind...
Sessions like these seperate the men from the boys....
I think Chanson is going to come with us also....Chason, that guy is pretty hardcore Shocked . He'll kite in anything....Elvis, PM me your phone number just in case we are coastal bound....
