11am nothing Sad

Windfinder says it 8mph. I see nothing except when a deer came by and farted.

Going to hang out and do some paper work. Hoping something changes. I got some new light wind gear to try out.

Re: We'd, Thursday, Friday

I don't see anything happening today.

Windy shows a lot bigger area of wind for Thursday and Friday.

Edit ( naturally the tree started rustling as soon as I posted that.)

On a side note
things are looking rough at this park. We should bring trash bags with us because the trash cans are full and there's trash all over the place

Re: We'd, Thursday, Friday

Mike rang me and said he got some foil time on a 7.2. Chris and I sailed on a keel boat this evening in light winds - its own kind of fun.

Looking forward to tomorrow.

Re: We'd, Thursday, Friday

1:30 VP live - wind too light, temps too high for me, nailing out - fail fast, go try something else before too late ?.
If you’re 130lb, have good set up with 8m sail and lots of skill, might be your day (Ehm William ?).
