I haven't planned that far ahead. I like to see if I survive Memorial day before planning the Fourth of July. :smile:
Unless something else really, really good comes up I will probably go. Sounds like you would want to kick yourself afterwards for missing it.
I started a new job five weeks ago. It's rather intense but in a good way. By the end of the week I'm pretty spent. It's nice to get my techie skills pushed near their limits. When I'm done working I don't have a lot left to even think about things like this. As I catch on more I will have more of me left for playtime.
Tides for the weekend, to plan the assault on the Salmon riv. http://hmsc.oregonstate.edu/weather/tides/2008/sbjul2008.html
Northwest Riders!??
Matt E,
I'm getting ready to move (military) from Tampa (being reassigned to Okinawa, Japan for 2 years) and will be driving my jeep and ski home to Yakima, WA for storage. I doubt I can make the 4th of July Freeride, but I'd love to hook up with some Northwest Riders to get some final rides in, if ya know what I mean. I'm mostly flatwater here in Tampa, but it would be great to get into some surf too. I'm from the Northwest orginally, but have never done any freeriding up there and have no clue where to ride (surf) or who to hook up with. Can ya help a brother out?
R,
Mike

it wasn't much better here in pdx.
maybe 74' and cloudy rainy misty mix here too.
here's a shot for the banana van doing about 70mph going over the i-205 north just past pdx looking at goverment island on the 4th.
the fireworks show was unreal this year !!!
fyi, last weekend was the best it's been here this year so far.
good luck

Sorry for not making it to Tierra yesterday. I didn't want to drag everyone along, so I just rode here in Lincoln City for a short while.
Fairly big surf for summer.
Coast guard cutter was out just past the second break, plus a helicopter, looking for someone.
On my way down to the beach the surf rescue guys came up (leaving) and told me to be careful.
"Lots of calls today".
Yeah, stupid me, riding by myself.
I stayed within the first break.
Went to Newport later in the day and took the kids/family to the aquarium and the old bayfront.

Probaly that surfer who had his arm severed by the Dory.
