RE: [PDXwindsurfer] Strong east winds for the next few days

Yeah, I thought about it, too. Was even tempted to call my sailing cohort
and see if he was up for a quick session.

Then I decided that my bike needed an overhaul, I really wanted to go for a
run, we needed to drop the Xmas tree off at the boy scout depot, had to
clean the gutters, etc. In other words I wimped out too.

Haven't given up on the idea of a coastal trip, tho. OOC, anybody sail or
have info on the Cape Lookout area ? We decided to rent a cabin for a night
at the state park there in Feb. for storm watching. Weather allowing, I'd
take gear and try to sail if the venue is somewhat forgiving.

Cheers
Gary

Not me. I thought about it, but took the dog for a walk instead. Went up
to Hoyt Arboretum , you could see all four mountains from the view point up
by the water tank. What a beautiful day. I knew that I couldn't talk my
sailing partner out into the water so that was the best that I could come up
with. It was tempting to check out Rooster but that place is brutal.

Is there some reason you guys go east to Rooster Rock instead of west to parking lot D? Is it just the distance or do you prefer the really nuclear winds? D...
