Penny Lingenfelter Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 Hey Monkey, Wildwood is open again. I may park my van there, or closer into town. Just FYI. I heard all they have left is overflow already. BB Penny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Barresi Posted August 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Hoorah! Glad to hear it Todd, see you then. Wind has been 3-6 mph almost all day both yesterday and today... A little mist at times, but quite warm if you're flying! Been flying my new 3PT (Light) Sea Devil like crazy, especially working on a double roll up into multilazies... Got my first complete Comet rotation today, not sure how I did it... Gonna have fun finding out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudolph Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Nice then we can have some fun demos this weekend. I managed to get my left rotation on the jacobs today with the xts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penny Lingenfelter Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Woo Hoo.... Long Beach is awesome this year. I had to come home, but I'll be back Friday evening. Love,,, I said LOVE ... the new UFO. I was so excited to be getting one, then we found out they are marketing it as a single line. lol We were so bummed we didn't even want to take it out of the package. We finally did and it's great. It can be launched from either direction, has a great spin capability and is very manuverable. Now I still can't wait to quad it! We Crazy ladies of Kite flying took many 1st places. We even took Best in Show! How.. We had our banner poles out with spinners and socks and we performed maneuvers. Ever see 6 woman pole dancing? lol Well, it was good enogh for best of show. How much fun is pun fun?! Extreme! We, Jessie, Christian and I took 3rd in the Rock battle. The credit goes to Christian, though it might be interesting to see him and Jessie compete against each other. I took a day and buggied in Seaside.. woo hoo.. misty, scary but fun run. Enjoyed barbequed clams with Eli Anderson friends and family. Stopped in Westport on the way down. It was great to see some friends and visit. So now it's back to reality.. work... and then L.B. for the weekend. Where we will be in the lesson field. See you there!! BB Penny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penny Lingenfelter Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Physically, I don't leave for Long Beach again till 5PM tomorrow night. Mentally, I'm still there from Monday and Tuesday! Woo Hoo... Awesome, Awsome.. The most laid back, fun festival and it's an International. which means we meet people from around the USA and Japan, and Thailand, and all over. Each year many of them return and I go looking for those smiling faces. Save me some sky! BB Penny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkey Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 Oh, its gotten so dull, flying revs for up to 8 hours per day for the last 7 days. not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penny Lingenfelter Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 Hey Monkey, There is a perk to having to come home and go to work. I remember being at Long Beach all week and being so tired I couldn't walk down to the end of my lines to meet some kewl flyer standing there. And the new flyers coming in on Fri. all fresh and rested... hey... that's going to be me! See you tonight. I'll pop by for a minute. Lots of friends coming in town, and we've got fireworks. Era, my daughter, and the kids are coming down tomorrow! Yeah! See you tonight. BB Penny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Barresi Posted August 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 Absolutely amazing... Between Summer Heat and WSIKF, I must have flown 5-6 hours each of the last 10 days... AWESOME wind... Sun on two days... And yes, I have photos of not only the Long Beach arch before and after, but also of the flying Pepsi Arch that fliers erected on Thursday. It's been a crazy couple of weeks, lots to do... But I will try to get those photos up asap. *sigh* How long until the next event? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkey Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 FANTASTIC times were had at WSIKF, I'm willing to say it was the best time I've had in 7 trips to that place. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
