Anyone want to go sometime in April? I've never been and am thinking of going. Would be fun to get some of the Utah crew down there together. How about the grandpa's?

Padre Island

We are not allowed there, over Spring Break, maybe an age discrimination thing, We've gone in Mid Oct the last two years. It rocks then, anything from light wind and big kites to hang on to a 9 M. Spring sounds like a windy time, but I find it hard to leave wind (and MUD) to find wind. RUSH RULES in the Spring. Opps got to go, time to get the EARLY BRID DINNER SPECIAL and the before 6 movie price. Ah the joys of being old. Now, if I could only remember where I was going to eat and the movie I wanted to see.

Jason,

I was there for my first time last April. 9 out of 10 days kiting. April is a really good month. Grandpa Wally and Grandpa Carnahan will both be there. They say it is like the old San Carlos days but with a Walmart.

PM me if you want phone numbers. Whit

Jason,
That would be so much fun, but let's try to get it going again in the fall,(Oct) when we are in the douldrums in Utah.
My plans are starting to shape up for a Hawaii trip in May. (maybe) So a trip in April just won't work, but what a great idea.
