Great winds and visitors from Connecticut and New York. Snowspider's kids are really getting to be good buggy/landboarders and no one but Paul's (doublespeed360) had any complaints. Paul's complaint was about flying my Charger when I took a break. It was too slow for him. He's definitely got big ones.

More fun for the crew later today.

This was a great day to play. The winds started slow but man did that change as the day went on. I had planned to leave by 7pm. I got home at 12:45am!! I'm tired but smiling. Oh well. Who could leave with this group of friends and this onshore wind. What a good time. And Paulo was nuts with his LEI in the buggy and on the board. Danny gave Ian a quick lesson on the buggy and he was off and rode for quite some time. Morgan was doing good on the landboard until Paulo hooked him into his LEI. Then he was taking off. He is really getting the hang of it. Big smiles on both kids. And a quick dinner at Tides turned into another couple of hours of great times. I look forward to the next gathering. I hope next time TheKidd and Cheesy can make it.

Had a great time with the Nahant crew. You guys did me a huge favor , my little guy who flys well but has always said "its boring" now after some nice beach runs sais he likes to buggy , "Its wicked fun" I guess as in wicked pisser fun! We did the whale watch saturday 20-30 whales , mother and baby , 3 species spotted, one hung out within arms reach of the boat for 20 minutes , calm sea , warm day , absolutly incredable!

Man am I glad you guys saw the whales. What a great experience. As for Ian buggying I think Danny gets a lot of credit for talking him into the buggy. After that it was all perfect conditions for learning. I can't wait to get back there. I got some video and will go through it and see what is useable. And then find some one to post it!
