    1st Piper's trip this year! Looked iffy on the cam at 8am, but model showed it coming in around 11 so went for it and was rewarded with 4m wind upon arrival! Tweezer, RupDog and Idefix(dan) already wanging around outside, Tweezlet Owen and his bud Mitch were giving it a go too. Met Dog's (RichardM) sister in parking lot, she's a winger!, she's nice!! and she's much more pleasant and sociable!!! than Dog :) Lots of fun in warm tropics of Nannyamooo, some pretty nice swell and bonus large sailboats running downwind to sneak up on from behind. Almost tasted the rocks off Clark Rock(?) marker, was so enjoying a nice swell run straight on toward the rock and with it being lowish tide the subsurface rocks loomed quickly and I had to suck stomach in, clench buttocks, think light and high foiling thoughts as I skimmed over them. EEEeek! Oh yeah Dog showed up much later.
