| - | Shaun, Mike G., and I have decided to scrub the Saturday morning\\ | ||
| - | paddle. There have been gusts over 60 mph within the last half hour\\ | ||
| - | and it's blowing steady between 30 and 50 from the SE (towards\\ | ||
| - | Portage). We had a high gust of 69 at about 4 am. I'm watching the\\ | ||
| - | wind this afternoon and maybe it will die down a little. I want\\ | ||
| - | scarey/fun conditions, not scarey/scarey conditions.\\ | ||

| - | I posted a couple of pics of what it looked like out there today.\\ | ||
| - | Heather and Brandon had a great downwind run from Marine Park to\\ | ||
| - | Squalicum, and somehow made it look easy. I chose what I thought would\\ | ||
| - | be a conservative approach, and put in at Boulevard Park; now I know\\ | ||
| - | why people looked at me funny when I said I would paddle upwind, meet\\ | ||
| - | those guys, and surf back. When I stuck my nose out in it and headed\\ | ||
| - | south, I felt DREAD...maybe I should have taken it as a sign after my\\ | ||
| - | boat had skidded 10 yards across the asphalt parking lot upside down\\ | ||
| - | after the wind had somehow found it tucked in tightly in the lee of the\\ | ||
| - | bath house, or when the Coast Guard station manager appeared from\\ | ||
| - | somewhere (what the heck?) and asked me what the heck I was doing...or\\ | ||
| - | the people there who looked at me weird and said I had 'issues'(yes\\ | ||
| - | true). Anyway, I looped twice to Cornwall and counted it good...and\\ | ||
| - | for some reason, I still had a bug up my butt and put in at dusk on\\ | ||
| - | Lake Whatcom for 6 miles in the dark...it was STILL windy. Time for\\ | ||
| - | the hot tub. Nice job Heather and Brandon. | ||
