Well as I get ready for Lincoln City I have to say I've been home way to long.... I'm not
sure what happens but when I'm home for this long I just go crazy and with that said what
can I do for you....... My bag is only half packed so if you want me to throw in a kite you've
wanted to try give me a holler and I'll bring it with me, but for now lets just say it's a crazy
Ben headed to the Or. coast...... Ben

See you all in LC, here's hoping this one is less "exciting" than the last!

Wow talk about a turn around, Lincoln City started off pretty rough with lots of rain and LOTS of cold...... Then it
happened sun and smooth winds and as always the "Family" came out in force, I mean no matter where you turned
all you saw was "Revolutions" and I'd have to say the everyone had fun..... Then as an added bonus Connor did his
first demo with his three stack and he really did a great job, also I'd like to go on record saying that Island Quad has
really stepped up there game, plus I'm not sure who or what team was flying across the "D River" but they did a
fine job.... So lets hope for another good day tomorrow and lets see what the wind gods have in store for us..... Ben

I believe, Ben, you were watching Katrina's nascent team.

Yeah, there were a couple of us mixed in with Cass and Carol, and others just having a blast!! I think we got it up to an 8 person at one time, mostly 6!! And here I was, last year, fearing team flying!! Hey, I see a line forming - get outta the way!!!!

It was a great weekend, even better than I had any right to hope for! And flying with Katrina, Carol, Cass et al was awesome. Learned a lot and had fun doing it. Gotta love these kites... From strangers to family in no time at all.

I stopped by yesterday afternoon briefly. Big crowd. After John flew his Rabbit of Seville routine he had a humourous little skit with Charlie Chaplin (Amy). Dog staking thru the hook of Charlies cane was a twist that was funny. Congratulations to both of you.

I believe, Ben, you were watching Katrina's nascent team.

Late Saturday four members of our boot camp team were practicing on that side of the river, but we were quite a bit north. I think Ben was probably referring to the larger, more obvious group (us and others) just N of the river. Now, since we were: a) flying team and b ) not part of any official team, I guess that means you were looking at Team Free Agents, Ben! I did get to lead that group for a little bit (so fun!! and everyone is so competent now), but mostly it was Carol at the helm. I heard Brett Morris did some leading, and so did Wayne! Pretty cool. Good festival. As usual.

Let's see, who was at the "Northside" LC Festival: me, Brett M, Gerry, Wayne, Mark, Bri, Cass, Carol, Bruce, Kevin, Anne, Jim Cable, Seth, Howard, and my brother-in-law Kris and my nephew Ben who are brand new fliers. Who am I missing?
