Tomorrow is Christmas for me!


Anyone else getting their best beaches back due to Labor Day and the removal of life guards and Rangers?

It will be nice to go flying during mid-morning hours rather than 6am or after 6pm!:singing:

Yeah the local schools are already back in session and the beaches are clearing off. Even during the summer I have usually about 1-2 football fields worth of space. Now it's nearly 4 miles, and it's still warm enough for the sea-breaze.

Now if I could only repel those afternon thunderstorms...

Angus -

That looks like Long Beach Peninsula in Washington at low tide. Awesome stretch.

I was looking at Jeckyll Island on Google Earth. How is Cumberland Island for kiting, just south of you? Looks pretty open and less populated. Maybe a winter road trip coming up...
