7/4/14, Grants, 7.0/115L

[kenonstott]

A senior moment led to a great sesh. I forgot to turn off the alarm so I was up by 6:00 and at the lake rigging before 8:00. Got better than 1.5 hours of ripping rides by 10:00 when it started dropping fast. Not the day to be late. I was amazed by the strength of the windlines, some had to be 5.2 by the dike. The high pressure seemed to be parked right where it needs to be for a great Grants morning. Dimitri, Jans, Duane and Josh showed up as well as a kiter I don’t know. The water still at a good level and relatively warm. Typical holiday weekend as I managed to collect a large garbage bag full of trash including a complete set of clothes. There were so many generators running in the campground it would have taken earplugs to go to the bathroom. I whipped around a turn at the dike and almost plowed into an electric troller. A profuse apology I hope smoothed everything over as they were quite polite about it. I had to find a back way back through Grants as there were both a parade and a car show blocking the 2 main east-west routes. Great morning.
