Hey gang - just a followup and a 4:20 pm update. Looks like Sherman might
be the place to be for the next couple of days. My pager tells me that
it's blowing between 18-36, avg 27, and it's been increasing approx 5 for
the last .5 hour or so (I love this CoTW pager - review post to follow in
the future). Might actually get to sail the new board! (btw, I bought
the ASD pintail for all you that suggested - thanks).
Sorry for the extra consumption of bandwidth, but I thought some of you
contemplating the Bay might want to make the drive to Sherman. Looks
like I'll be going there Saturday if the conditions persist.
Happy shredding!
