Sunset at Calhoun

Post by Denis »

Looks like there is some wind from the West. Michael and I are catching a sunset session at Calhoun at 3:30 and we'd love some company.

We must have just missed you Denis. Tom and I were out on Calhoun from 1:00 to 3:00. The wind and ice was good for my 12M, but it did seem to come up after we left. The north end of that lake on a west wind is a little scary for jumping, the tall buildings really whip the wind around.

Mike showed up at 3:30, and I arrived some time after that, so we missed you by just a little bit, Pete. We were flying 5m and 7.3m kites and at times we were really juiced up. Not the best ssession since there was some tangling problems. I was amazed how clearly we could see past sunset. Must be all the city lights reflecting off the low clouds we had yesterday. We could have gone way past 6:00 if we wanted to, but called it quits at 5:30 to go detangle.
