Got there to 31g31 but it was back to 25g29 when I started rigging. Too windy occasionally for the 5.2 but most of the time it was right at the top end. Wild screaming rides for almost 2 hours on the little Race board left me grinning from ear to ear. The air warmed up reasonably fast and hit 60 by the end. I was determined not to go down in the brutal water. I finally went down hard at 11:30 and the brain freeze took me to shore to pack. By then it was 30g35 and I had 2 hours in so oh well. Wish I could have stayed as it is still blowing at 3:00. By sailing twice at Grantsville in December and cheating by sailing 3 times at Mojave in January, I have now sailed 12 months in a row. Even got to ski this week. Penny retired today and we are off to Las Vegas/Grandkids and Mojave for at least 3 weeks.
