I arrived at 2:00pm to see southwick getting in his car to leave, but when he sees me we talk. The wind is blowing strong and we begin to rig. I rig 7.2 and he rigs 8.5. Plenty of power maybe to much at times although I didn't get slamed, but close. I was joking that it was going to be a session of slogg to get slammed type of day but it didn't turn out that way. In fact it was a surprisingly good session. Judy was her 6.0 and doing great. The wind was still blowing good when I left at 4:00pm. It is really nice to sail after going awhile not sailing. Anybody up for an early morning session at Grantsville at 7:00am???

Ditto James and George. Decided too many people at scene beach. Headed to rock beach and kept going to the dam. Rode the free formula 138. I can't believe I wanted to get it out of my life last year. Today was the kind of day that it shined. Today was the bonus that we've been waiting weeks for. Nothing epic but 3 hours of more rides than not. Left the rubber at home just a suit and a rash guard. Can't wait for winter when we can get back to Strawberry.
