Reef Runner Posted June 4, 2013 Report Posted June 4, 2013 Finally made out first trek to the coast for the season.............All I can say is that: + = "but-tah !!! Gotta keep an eye on these two and keep them a part. I think it might be mating season, out on the sand ? 7 Quote
Quad KiT Posted June 4, 2013 Report Posted June 4, 2013 Best place in the world... of course it is, because I live there! Quote
RobB Posted June 5, 2013 Report Posted June 5, 2013 If they're mating in the sand, just warn them not to get sand in their sticky spots ! 1 Quote
SHBKF Posted June 5, 2013 Report Posted June 5, 2013 OBX, the place I bought & flew my first "stunt kite" many years ago. Anxious to get back & fly it there again. Of course, this time, I'll have a few additional kites with me. Rev it up Reef Runner! Wish I was there. old number one 2 Quote
Reef Runner Posted June 6, 2013 Author Report Posted June 6, 2013 More "but-tah", for the week. What I flew today, before the weather set in..............crap ! rain rain rain rain rain Quote
Reef Runner Posted June 6, 2013 Author Report Posted June 6, 2013 And tomorrow........(Thursday).........H E A V Y R A I N !! And Friday.....(more Heavy Rain)....... Thank you Andrea ! We are outer here, soon ! It's just that four hour drive home, in the pouring rain..........sheesh! Quote
Reef Runner Posted June 6, 2013 Author Report Posted June 6, 2013 Well, I suppose the Weather Channel can be wrong on occassion. It ended up, NOT raining yesterday (Wed afternoon), and so far today (Thursday), nothing.........but nice wind. Here's another toy I found down deep in my kite bag. Must be 10+ years old, and never flown. Anyone ever heard of a Prism Triad. Actually, I think you can still buy them today, for about $30 +/-, so definitely not a rarity. Another neat little toy, when you just don't want to string out a bunch of line, and had rather just kick back (and wait for the rain) . I think our luck is about to run out today !! Beach time is just about to come to an end......... 1 Quote
Reef Runner Posted June 6, 2013 Author Report Posted June 6, 2013 Enjoy it. Looks perfect. Having a great time Barton. Thanks............. 1 Quote
Wayne Dowler Posted June 6, 2013 Report Posted June 6, 2013 Only believe the "Hippy Dippy Weatherman"! Today's weather - it's outside!!! Quote
Reef Runner Posted June 7, 2013 Author Report Posted June 7, 2013 Ok Wayne, the "Hippy Dippy Weatherman" says, "H E A V Y R A I N" I'm out of here.......... Quote
RobB Posted June 7, 2013 Report Posted June 7, 2013 Sorry you decided to vacation at the beach just in time for the first named storm of the hurricane season ! Stick around, ride it out ! Storms are a real adventure when you're right there on the beach... I'm glad to hear you got some flying in. Looks like a great place ! Post some more pictures when you get a chance... Quote

Post some more pictures when you get a chance... No problem with the storm. We aren't worried, and have been here during much worse. It's just that we've got to leave on Saturday morning, anyway, and it's going to pour buckets, all day Friday, so what's the point. Plenty of things I could be doing at home. I really wish this was happening on a Sunday - Thursday. We'd be here for sure...........as you say, coastal storms (to a certain extent) are a real treat ! Most people never get to experience the beauty, or the strength, of "Mother Nature" at it's best, and no where better to experience that, than right on the beach............... 1 Quote
Reef Runner Posted June 7, 2013 Author Report Posted June 7, 2013 Post some more pictures when you get a chance... Oh Rob, just tell me what you want to see, and I can promise I've got pics. Just let me know............... 3 Quote
Reef Runner Posted June 7, 2013 Author Report Posted June 7, 2013 Back home now......what a cruddy day this has been, and not too good for traveling, either..............Did I mention "buckets" Quote
Khal Posted June 8, 2013 Report Posted June 8, 2013 I'm planning a day trip down to the Rogallo Festival tomorrow. Looks like I just missed you. Quote
Reef Runner Posted June 8, 2013 Author Report Posted June 8, 2013 I'm planning a day trip down to the Rogallo Festival tomorrow. Looks like I just missed you. Yeah, sorry we missed each other. I always manage to miss that festival. I'm either coming in, late on Saturday, or leaving early, on Saturday morning......... I'll have to make arrangements to make it, one of these years.........

RobB Posted June 8, 2013 Report Posted June 8, 2013 Thanks for the pictures ! Looks like a kiteflying paradise ! Quote
Reef Runner Posted June 9, 2013 Author Report Posted June 9, 2013 Thanks for the pictures ! Looks like a kiteflying paradise ! For sure - Best on the "Right Coast", although you seem to have a pretty "sweet" spot, yourself........ Quote
RobB Posted June 9, 2013 Report Posted June 9, 2013 Anywhere on the water is good for me. You just have to have a warmer coat where I am for 6 months out of the year ! 1 Quote
Reef Runner Posted June 10, 2013 Author Report Posted June 10, 2013 Read my status - "Fair Weather Cruiser" - Still wishing for Summer Sun, Warm Sand, and Easterly Winds !! Probably won't find me flying, any time, when a coat is necessary.......... Quote
