Nice!
That counts as staying upwind?

Nice.
Saw the 405 flags pegged from the North as I headed to the airport around 5:30 - looked like it could go.
- the wind was south at the airport then clocked to the west.

Do we need a Poll on whether this actually counts as a first day? The photos don't tell it like that.
Sauvies = 70 degrees, sun, and a crusing around on a nice steady northerly breeze.
Not catching the storm winds as they spin all about.
Though I commend the efforts, and I think CrazyC should get something in return for charging it, not sure we should call this one the first day.
Besides look at the source, Kraemer?! that tells it all...
