wicked friday




October rarely disappoints in Ohio, that is if you don't count my abject disappointment in not being on the OBX. But, Friday October 15 made up for some of my disappointment. It was an odd sort of a day with localized rain squalls moving through the area. Shortly after the rains came through the wind would drop to almost nothing. When I got to fairport people (ok, person) was rigging a 7. Before he got out on the water it was blowing 25-30+. Good thing to, I heard a report of someone at Wendy (no names) who was out with a 9 and got blown down into the river and had to be pulled up the steel wall with a rope. One thing about wind driven water sports is that they keep you in tune with the weather.
