Warmer and Windier



March has been a great month in Port Aransas, Texas. Everyone was telling me that March is when it starts to heat up around here and they were right. It has been in the 80's almost everyday this week and the water has been heating up over 70. The wind has been perfect everyday for kiteboarding. This past week my routine has been wake up around 10am, then hit the water by 11am and kite until dark. We usually kite under the moonlight for awhile too, before we pack it up and call it a day. It has been an incredible experience. I have gotten a lot better at kiteboarding quickly but there is so much more to learn. Port Aransas, TX is proving to be one of the best locations for kiteboarding in the surf.



The warming climate has also brought out some of Port Aransas 's locals. Julie found a 4-5ft rattle snake crossing the dirt road in our RV park. The snake almost stretched across the whole lane and was about 4" thick. I used to go down that bumpy dirt road slow on my bike but now I fly down it to avoid any snakes. YUCK!


That's all the news I have for now. I hope everyone is doing well!
