@bobbie you all are welcome anytime!
 
So you did the video with the free software from MS?

I do videos for my daughter's sports team so I bought a cyberlink product, it was ~$300 if I remember correctly, I like it, not sure how it compares to something like Adobe Premiere.

Awesome videos, makes a good case for a drone, really captures awesome images to document the trip.

Also, where are all of the other boaters?
 
We were back in a very quiet slough that is mostly used for water sports. The bigger open areas of the lake are where most of the boats stay. Now that we have the wedge, we don't need big open spaces to surf in circles. :D

Y'all come on down! No wet suits required here :D. Water has warmed up to where you're searching for a cold spot.
 
@haknslash @Bill D the weather has been so bad and we had such a huge snowpack in the mountains, the water dropped back down to a toasty 58 degrees!
 
Eeeeeeeewwwwww! ;) Water temps in the mid 80s here these days. But heavy snowpack must have made for some good winter activities. :watching:
 
we don't go in the water when it is below 80degrees lol
