Happy April Fools Day.

At last a nice wind day! It was a little gusty, but not enough to cause problems. The weather has been very unsettled, so today's fly was during a nice break in that.

I flew almost every trick I know. The fades I flew were shifting around a lot and some were even rising fades, but for the most part I was able to control them. It seems that the lighter winds are best for learning new tricks, but that as I'm improving, I'm able to fly the same tricks in stronger and stronger winds (up to a point of course).

The Zephyr bridle still hasn't arrived.
