Looks like a 20+ day tomorrow afternoon at Hamburg - I am going to try to get there by 3 or 4. Maybe earlier.

Thanks for posting Kel! I have trouble figuring out when & where to give it a shot. Seeing where other people are going (before they go) definitely helps.
Sat & Sun are wide open for me this weekend. My number's 585-733-2440 if you head out shoot me a text!

Hey Brent,
Looks like the best chance for wind this weekend is either NE corner of lake Ontario on Sat or maybe Hamburg on Sunday. But right now its not looking strong.
Hamburg was excellent yesterday. From 2pm to 6pm it was blowing over 20 to 25. Lots of kites and mylar. Saw some huge air by a number of the windsurfers!
Definitely a perma-grin day!
Town of Hamburg made out like bandits - The police had just finished ticketing everyone as I was pulling in around 4pm. Sort of glad I was running late.

Hey Dudes,
Heads up on Hamburg. I went and got a guest pass at the office for 5 dollars. They put my name in their computer for future tracking. I'm thinking that that place is more than worth $5 and maybe if they start getting some dough there will be peace between us.
Also yesterday marked the debut of the Rochester Windsurf Helmet cam. I tried to get some KIte kids on it but discovered that I need to get closer. Maybe we should talk about it on shore and I could set up and catch some of you catching air,
Speaking of air time, modesty forbids me saying anything but I do have some cool video of some guy on a JP if not getting a lot of air at least coming down hard and splashing!

I received an e mail this morning titled "Proof". The body of the e mail showed that aliens do indeed exist. I think the photo below is of what my three year old son calls "the bully bug". Anyhow it scares him, and now it scares me. The Proof: Bill the Bully Bug Alien Helmet Cam Guy at Hamburg.  Windydoug |

Well Bill, you have certainly surpassed even my wildest expectations of you! I can not wait for Joe, and Technical Ted, to see you all decked out. I do want to tell you, not a babe magnet!
As far as the Gorge, Mark is back home. Ted and Joe will be there until Saturday the 25th, probably home the 27th or 28th. Joe cracked a mast. Be prepared to hear how he now has the coolest lightweight, small diameter, large mast that according to the shop out there, has yet to be broken. Starting mid week next week make sure you keep him in your loop for heads up on wind.
