Late start today but boy did it blow. Went out on 7m for 1 run, too much, 6m for 1 run, too much, 4.2 rest of the day. Went way down to bottom of lake with the Wingers, Twizz and the Doctor. Great fun riding the super sized swells. Then back up for a quick lunch, then it dropped to 15kts so went up to top of lake furthest up I have been this year as far as wind would take me until it basically shut off so headed home just as wind picked up, raced the wind back to camp and won but last gybe was pretty hairy and then last reach into the beach was totally sheeted out! Grabbed 4.2 again and sailed for another hour with no one on the lake except the Wing Twizz and Windfoil Mikey B. Felt pretty weird but was definitely windy. Wind had to be close to 30kts. I came in to rig down to the 3.7 but thought I'd check the forecast and could see the rain coming on the radar so decided to call it there. Packed up and left as I didn't want to have to pack up tomorrow with everything soaking wet. Great 3 days at the lake, probably last of the summer. Came home on South Shore road and it was waaay better than Youbou side. Arrived home at 9:45pm. Will sleep well tonight. Good Times!!
