Too much to resist...



The wind on Saturday was good - good enough to kite, but we had other agenda items to take care of.

The wind on Sunday was better, and despite the oil on the beach, I dragged the family out and logged some hours.

I didn't see any oil on the surface of the water, but there were pancake to dinner plate sized blobs on the beach. Had to clean some off of my 16.

The kids and I did play around in the water (wind swell pushing in) and we didn't come out all oil covered.

More luck I guess. But I REALLY needed this kite session. I felt the grumpy old man in me creeping out. Now after several jumps and a few rides on small waves, I'm back to my old mellow self!

A great July 4th!
