The sky was full of enormous kites at First Encounter beach on the bay. About a dozen of them. Riders reached tremendous speeds, executing snowboarder tricks with huge altitude. Spoke with one of them as he walked his kite back to his car for something to better control his pony tail. It was like watching somebody handling a Macy’s Parade balloon put money in a parking meter. The water at the ocean’s Coast Guard beach may be colder (always), but it’s always worth it.
