It blows like hell out of the south all week and fades by the weekend. It looks like Monday will be good again.
Crap!

I know what you mean! I tried to squeeze in a few hours on the water tonight, in anticipation of not sailing this weekend but even that didn't work. IWindsurf showed 17-23 at Pleasure Bay around 5:30. I was there about 45 minutes later but it was pretty light. I never quite planed. I think the meter for Pleasure Bay reads a little high.

Work hasn't kept me off the water this week. Caught a nasty cold, and I've been weasing and coughing up gunk. I promised my wife that I wouldn't sail till it cleared up. Probably the correct thing to do, but very frustrating.

Chrissm, tell your wife of the healing powers of salt water. Sounds like BS but everytime I've sailed while on the cusp of a sore throught, it seemed to clear right up. Really.

Well, it's Monday morning and the forecast for Tuesday is mid to upper twenties out of the south. Cough, cough, wheez....... I think I am coming down with one of those twenty-four hour colds.

Ahem, let's not forget a really thick layer of sunscreen too. Wouldn't want to come back after the "ick" with a telling sunburn/tan, now would we? 8^)

Well, it's Karma. My one important appointment pushed me off until Friday. What a bummer. Now I do not have an excuse to stay and work.
Gonna blow close 30 from the looks of it. I hope some of you guys get out tomorrow.
