Padre in late April?
Anyone planning yet to go to Padre this Apirl? I'm thinking of driving down again, it all depends if Caroline gets a job or not?
Re: Padre in late April?
$298.00 round trip right now from 4-25 through 5-2 to Harlegen.
Re: Padre in late April?
Our group is going down the week of 17th-26th. Looking forward to it.

Re: Padre in late April?
I'll know more by the end of Feb if I'm driving or not, if I do a U-Haul rental trailer might be the answer, I would pull it down with my truck and I could just keep it parked in the lot with a combo lock on it and you could come and go as you would like to get gear out and so on, that might be an option?

Re: Padre in late April?
Anyone else going to SPI around 4-10 through 4-18?
Re: Padre in late April?
I am seriously planning on heading to Padre. Have we confirmed dates/cost. Any interest in going later in the month for some overlap with the SPI Kite Roundup?
Re: Padre in late April?
Nothing is fixed in stone, though May is one of our best months here in Minnesota. We usually plan on going down during the non ridable interim here. April is the best wind as well. Also not sure if I'd want it much more crowded down there.
Katie has the right idea. Do both.

Does anyone know when the sping breakers are supposed to be there, I wouldn't want to be there when they are all there.
Re: Padre in late April?
Spring break is late feb to mid of march
Re: Padre in late April?
Dave and I have firmed up our plans. We decided to fly to SPI instead of drive. We will be going down 3/26 to 4/3.
