Just got back from walking the dog and had to shake the snow off her (and my coat).
WAHOO!!!!
Doubt it'll be anything worthwhile - and doubt it'll stick around but there's nothing like feeling it hit your bald head to get you in the mood for
some snowkiting!

This time of year us soooo frustrating. Enough snow on the grass and great wind this morning for my first snowkite session but I could not get out of
work. Now it has all melted again:dunno:
More on the way tonight :singing: Have to go now to practice my cough ..

mac,
if the meet 1/2 way idea pans out I'll split gas/ride with ya!

At the moment it looks like my most available days are Dec. 22, 23 , 24, 26 and maybe 27.
It would be great if we can put this together. Sylvan isn't much more of a drive than Spray Lakes would be. I would go North instead in a heart beat
to ride with PKF Family !
Sylvan sounds good. I like " park and ride " kiting ! Park the car and RIDE !
Any of those days work for you Canuck, Mac, Rev, Kiteboy ... ?
(Oh, and don't worry Cheddarhead....our snow won't last much past tomorrow or the next day. But it'll be back! I'll send you some of the "stay around
a while" kind )

Rode by the local field to get coffee this morning and thought to myself "is there enough snow???" I probably could ride it but more than likely I'd
ruin the surface of my board and since it's the only one I have.

You just reminded me that I have a stashed pair or Sled Dogs Snow Skates that were around sometime in the 90's. I used them for one season and were
good on hard packed. I should still have them in a box in the basement. Why didn't I think of this before

Oh man i'm so desperate to get out on the snowboard! It will be another month at least until we get any worthwhile snow in the UK and then we dont
have enough altitude to make it reliable!
Got 11 days off at Christmas so wishing hard for snow!
Then I have 3 weeks in France and Switzerland to look forward to in February. woo hoo

Without a doubt ! It is by far best to have they kite you are most comfortable with. So much easier putting it all together when you are already on
top of your kite.

22 , 23 are best for me. Drive home the 26th or 27th.

It's on - scheduled for the 22nd unless wind looks better on the 23rd. We'll meet at Sylvan Lake....the Big Moo probably? I think that's the best
landmark.
If the wind's not cooperating we're doing the drive on the 22nd anyway - even just to grab a burger and visit a while.
i'm out (dang it) sorry.
not too bad off though I'll be in sunny Florida.
maccy-b...i told BR if you guys think you might need my two big FSers I could send them out with you.
