Sorry about the temps. and precip. in the far northwest. I was practicing my Eskimo rolls in a heated outdoor pool (yes, we're cold water weenies here on the Gulf coast) yesterday. Water temp. 70, air temp 70. Paddled with three compadres on Sunday in the Galveston Channel right next to where I work - blue skies, sunshine, temps in the 60s. The day before it was well into the 70s, but this "blue norther" blew in, with winds gusting to 26 knots in the Houston Ship Channel. We opted for the protected Galveston channel, had a nice lunch break basking in the sun on a sand beach. Ya oughta head to the Gulf coast this time of year to shake the winter storm blues! (having said that, watch it start blowing and raining here, too) Cheers!
