Hmmmm. wondering how much fun this is going to be, will I be able to handle it!

It is SO rewarding to find those stretches of beach where you see you are in the clear for more than a mile ahead of you. Making it around the corner to the shipwreck is quite an accomplishment. The wind angle I had there last time was like a slingshot coming back home from around the corner on the south side of the island. Faster, faster, faster. At first, we were working upwind to make it to the corner, then as you go around the long curving beach we ended up on a downwind reach and that just built on the apparent wind you already had going. Unreal. I'm jealous of the riding and all the people that will be there. :thumbup:

I already have it penciled in for next year and have been talking to Angus about some details. I won't be moving in May next year.

Less than 2 weeks away! Wooooooohooooo!!!!

I've been putting 1/4 tank of gas each paycheck in the Kite Fort to filler up getting ready for the drive. Lets see--food or gas... Hmmmm. Tough call.. :dunno:

65 gallon tank:ticking:

Oh, well, Its worth it!

mougl - 9-5-2011 at 06:40 AM

Kite fort: a lot

Gas: $4.00 per gallon

Flying on Jekyll: priceless

Hardrock - 9-5-2011 at 09:05 AM

Getting close now! I got to learn to fly all over again.

Put up a kite a couple weeks ago but it was in a bad spot and didn't do too much.

Think I'll go lay a couple out and look at em.

mougl - 9-5-2011 at 09:33 AM

If anyone is planning to be there early it looks like I'll be there on the 17th early afternoon. Nothing like an extra day to fly!! Sooo...if you are coming early let me know and we can hook up and fly!

Hardrock - 9-5-2011 at 10:17 AM

Yea, we are planning on being there the 16th.

There will be a Ted and Holly McKibben from Maine this Saturday. They are renting a cottage on the island for the week.

Noon on the 18th for me.

flyguy0101 - 9-5-2011 at 05:19 PM

i will be there noon on the 18th- with the family- Andrew is very excited to fly in a seabreeze again and Devan has promised to try the zooter, Carter is looking forward to getting a tandem ride, so i am hoping someone is bringing a tandem setup or at least a hitch i can hook to my buggy. Cant wait to meet some more of you all.

I am bringing my old hitch (tested on new buggy) and am working on an upgrade. Who knows I might just have two hitches. :-)
