Yah.... woke up to the rain finally gone but the trees bent over and squirrels scurrying for cover. If it ain't one thing....:mad: Garbage pickup was yesterday... anyone that didn't bring in their barrels will be searching the neighborhood for them today.

ATB,

Yep, dead branches down all over my yard. Not a day to put a kite in the air. Tomorrow looks promising though.

How was the wind at Nahant today?

I went up to Wells. It was absolutely beautiful there, but the wind was pretty light and fading fast. Dead calm by 3:30. Wish I had shown up an hour earlier. But still nice to get a kite in the sky after a long drought.

Wind conditions improved throughout the day blowing SWish. I spent the majority of the day on my 6m Pulse.

Unfortunately the high winds these past few days LOADED the beach with weed and made for some bumpy terrain. You could not ride between Tides and the halfway house as the weed on the beach was THICK.

But where you could ride it was good although somewhat crowded at times as space was tight.

Glad you got out, Adam. It would be nice to ride with you again if you ever decide to come back down.

All of you guys who arrived late missed DJ getting stuck in the seaweed... Gotta give the kid credit though, he managed to take his shoes and socks off while in the buggy and still flying the access. Unfortunately he stepped out of the buggy into 8" of seagoooo. He spent a half hour washing the seaweed out of the buggy crevices (Along with between his toes) when we got home....

That must have been nasty. The weed had a bit of a stink to it too. I was driving home and could smell it on my hands and my pants.

after a while you get use to it, plus it keep lot of people away,i almost didn't buggy cuz of it.

Any time I can get the upper hand on the kid it is a good day! (Though few and far between)
