Happy Boxing Day! (Stand-by For a Bit of Turbulence)

Date: 12/26/2011
Place: 100 Acres Park, Moorhead, MN
Kites: Rev 1.5-b "Sunset" 4-wrap on 70'
Wind: 15 to 30 mph, W
Weather: Cloudy, 48º
23 flights at $14/flight

I didn't go shopping and I didn't "box" up any kites, I went out a flew one. Even with my vented Rev the wind was very very bumpy, with some gusts around 30 mph, maybe over 30. But with the current heat-wave (almost 50º at Christmas in northern-western Minnesota), it wasn't too cold to fly. There almost seemed to be a layer of slightly slower wind near the ground, but I still got pulled around some today.
