Sounds like a good bunch showing up this year. Had a great time last year. June vs. August. Maybe less fog in August? Either way, I'm in.

Can you guys please turn the temperature up a little this year. I had to drink WAAAAY to much beer to stay warm.

I'd love to go again, plus I think Bandon By The Sea misses meeeeeeee.

Bandon...

Ya know. Fog is a funny thing! Back in the day, a group of us would drive over for a day of sloping(it's just under four hrs. away from here). All the way down 101, it would be gorguous with the wind howling out of the North. We would drive in clear conditions all the way out to the point, only to break out of the trees and find IMC! ALL day!

Thank God for "Moggy/Plankie" sorta gliders. Otherwise we woulda been skrewed!... And then we found Bethel Creek!

It aint no Cape Blanco, but it'll do in a pinch!
