Luck comes in all shapes and sizes DJ. This morning luck came in the shape of -2 F with not enough snow on the ground to do anything with it. Didn't
mean our dog didn't need to be taken out for both #1 and #2. Brrrr.

Yep, it snowed a couple inches 2 days ago. Just enough to plan for a first ride on my mud skis. Then it was -22 yesterday, too cold to go out there.
Today it is +2, windy and the snow is meeeltiiing 
Consider yourself lucky to miss out on the snowkiter's emotional rollercoaster :D

between 72 and 25 degrees around here... No consistency here!

Thanksgiving day in Texas was good for kites, friends, and food at the beach
While snow kiting looks appealing, I'm happy it does not snow in my part of Texas.

@3shot, I tried snow buggying once and it sucked. You just slide downwind unable to steer.
Careful what you wish for Dj |
