It might actually be spring in the Pacific NW (first fly this year)

[Brettgrant99]

I managed to finally make it out yesterday and today for the first time this year.

Yesterday it was a Top of the Line NSE with an 85 foot tube tail.

Today it was Flying Wings Utopia. (sorry, no pictures)

Nice to get back out.

Are others starting to get out?

Yesterday, I dragged a few kites out of the cartop carrier.  I have a number to mend.

However, I did manage to get the Tsuru UL up for an hour or so.

And today I went a little older and took my Stranger out for a bit.

Is it sacrilege that later I put an 80' tail on it and flew that for the kids at the park?

Hope everyone else is able to enjoy the spring.

Here's a funny for you. Just got back from a vacation at Ocean Shores, Washington. 
The wife loves rain. it rained 6 days out of 7. The one day it didn't rain, The wind didn't blow.  I had my friends Hawiian team kite and 8 other kites. Oh, Well did get a box kit and a little tiny stunt kite up for about 30 minutes. That's how the wind blows.

That's a bummer for kite flying.  Hope you had other fun.  Its been a while since I have been to Ocean Shores, I should plan another trip sometime.

Where are you located?  

I have a Team Hawaiian somewhere.  Yesterday I took out my Utopia again.  I need to see about taking out my Trlbys, I've got a stack of 4.
