YAY!!!! Ride and chase!
It's been a while since I have posted but I am still here. LOL! Since having to temporarily give up my buggy dreams, I have bought a new car (more
given to me) from a close friend of 20+ years.
This post is not about my new car but about the fact that now I am ecstatic about being able to "chase the wind" I can now go to the many parks
around town or other towns and find places to ride and fly! Only having 2 kites now is kinda bothersome seeing as, I can only fly in 10 to 25 MPH (my
comfy zone). No buggy but good board weather. I am so happy that now I can go anywhere within 120 mile base to fly! I LOVE IT! My friend sold me his
old car, a 2006 Saturn Aura with 60'000 miles on it, for 2200 bucks! I'm happy I can get out and fly wherever whenever again! I still want to buggy
YAY! :D :duh:but now I can ride whenever. :

That's good dj. I've had a couple saturns. they will run forever as long as you keep a close eye on the oil. generally they like to go through some
oil.

I loved my Jeep Wrangler but it was a pain to keep running. Though i did off road it quite a bit. LOL! My friend hardly ever drove this car and he is
crazy meticulous when it comes to maintenance on his cars, so this thing is like new! I got lucky and it's good to have friends you have known for
over 20+ years..... Still keep trying to get him to try kiting though! I spooked him when we were teens and I let him fly my 5m quad track and it drug
him across a field... I'm not the best kiting recruitment figure. LOL! :D
