  1. Definitely won't miss that lime on the field. It's bright
  2. Be safe out there, Marshall
  3. That is awesome! Congratulations, Ralph.
  4. They're driving today from Colorado. I would guess that the drawing will be a little later if he is able to get online and rectify the membership numbers once they have established camp for the evening.
  5. Drawing Day is here! Happy Canada Day To Our friends in the north.
  6. He's the hill billy, I'm just a redneck
  7. It's too bad this drawing is available to all members, not just those that get on and banter. I would like the odds were it the latter.
  8. Only 6? Folks are holding out for their lucky number or something. Come on, people, get in on this!
  9. Apologies, Marshall. Didn't catch you were including the stake. I have corrected the drawing post.
  10. I'm in! I happen to have a stake looking for a holder. Very cool idea!
  11. Thank you, Ken, for a great prize. This topic is now locked. The new drawing is posted.

  13. Marshall has sent me his drawing info. I will get it posted tomorrow. Stay tuned
  14. Congratulations, Marshall!
  15. I like the control of longer handles. I fly 15's on 1.5's and larger. I fly 13's on my B2, my progressive stack, and my sonic vented. Plus I usually travel with 13's for the space savings.
  16. I'll be more than happy to bring them to NC when we come on vacation to the OBX from TN
  17. ...when I drive down from Tennessee to fly them there.
  18. One of my favorite kite memories. Those were the only 2 kites in the air. Although I have no doubt that, if they had wanted, Paul and Paul could have been there right next to us.
  19. I just reconciled myself to the fact that my legs have to be the most important tool in my flying arsenal. Now, even when I have a decent breeze I don't stand still. I am always moving. It has become part of my flying rhythm. I flew yesterday in this frustrating, light to nothing, hot wind. I ended up with the kite flying in three different directions over the course of the session, sweating, walking all over the field, and had a blast. What makes inland flying (and getting competent at inland flying) so great is how awesome you can fly when you are at a beach with a steady, clean breeze of any speed coming from off of the ocean.
  20. Well if no one else wants in that makes the odds better for me. I'M IN!
  21. Seriously, is that all the interest there is in this set of Kites? Nothing draws crowds like stacks, and this is an awesome stack. Let's get the banter going here folks. Unless you have all just conceded the fact that I am winning these kites.
  22. An autographed Peter Powell! Good Times!
  23. Great prize, Ken. Carolyn's work is really beautiful. I have 3 of her stakes and will be vying for this mug. (I'm just not entering quite yet).
