Kite fun at Delta Park this weekend?

[John Barresi]

Just checking in to see who might be interested in meeting up at Delta Park this weekend for some kite flying.

Looks like TK and I will be there... Anyone else?

[Major Hostility]

Are you planning on being there both days? Sunday is looking pretty good for me

[John Barresi]

Yes, pretty sure both days... Just give me a call if you want to confirm on the day of.

[Eric Allen]

Don't know-my mother-in-law is in town and I have no idea what's planned.

I'll be there if I can get away. I'll be super rusty and my kites will be out of tune. Big fun!

[The Kite Shoppe]

Great!

I'll try for Saturday!

(weather permitting......)

[Justin]

Sarah and I will join you on Sunday. Spent the last couple of afternoons there in fact, and progressed my quad-line skills enough that I won't be completely embarrassed

[John Barresi]

Super, hope to see many of you there... If you've got 120' quad lines, we can do some team flying too!

Regardless of skill, I'm all too happy to share my experience on both quads and duals.

[Justin]

Ahh-- 120' lines are on my shopping list. I'll see if I can get some before this weekend. Theresa, help me out here??

[glider]

I'll be around this weekend and this is the perfect excuse to avoid house and yard work.

[John Barresi]

YAY!

See if you can talk Lyla into a day in the sun as well, eh?

[JoneZ]

I've gotta work on Saturday, but I can see whats up for Sunday. I have this naggin feeling that Im forgetting something that I need to do this weekend.

Hope its not important. o.0

Anyhow, I'll repost as soon as I figure out the weekend schedule here. After the week I've had (excluding my Wifes Bday), I could use some "K n' R n' R" (with some beer). hehe

Cheers~!

[PDX Ron]

been a long time since ive flown. Ill try and make it out for a bit. both days? and around what time?

[John Barresi]

I'm thinking around 10am or so, both days.

[chuckw]

Sounds great. I think Saturday can work. Do you meet on the soccer fields?

[John Barresi]

Nope, west side of I-5... Overflow lot, huge grass field next to Portland International Raceway.

Thanks. I thought it was on the west side but I don't recall being there previously.

Sounds like fun. Is there somewhere nearby to hang a 27' Airstream for a couple of nights?

Don't need hook-ups, just a space.

[John Barresi]

SO much fun yesterday!

We must have had about a dozen folks out, 9 Revs, 3 dual lines and a single line... Wind was pretty decent all day, great weather.

Thanks to Ken for the coffee and pastries, nice touch.

Hope to see some of you out there again today.
