Left work today around noon to meet Barrett at Veterans Field (launch #2) for some warm-up runs. First time out this year, wind looked light but up high it was strong. Started with the 9.5m but within a half hour had to put it away, strong winds up high maybe about 25+km. Decided to pull out the 7m Montana, with wind changing from S to W, she took off like a rocket. The sun was out and the wind was a perfectly steady 25-30km. The power was whicked and the 8" of snow was good enough, speed runs and even boosted a few 6 foot floaters.
I would have to say today was my second best day with the 7m. The only thing missing was Andy!
Call if you can make it out Wednesday at all. Saturday early is all I can do right now.

I miss you too, but not the cold. It's +29C and raining, no wind and 15 foot waves here.
