"Our son has come home safely! After thousands of miles and lifeforming
experiences he is stronger and more certian of his beliefs. We are all together
again and will be an even stronger family. God Bless all of you who offered
help to a family in crisis. I still hope that you all may someday meet Kyle
under a strong sun and in a steady breeze. Thank you, thank you."

Thanks to everyone for your help and concern in this matter. It is great to be have happy ending!

good end... better than finding him fighting with the Taliban!

Too true. Did you make it out yesterday? I screwed up driving back Saturday night (with naps into Sunday morning, whoops). Nine hours on the road plus a 25 mile downwinder plus a few hours of free riding in one day may be too much?

we had a great day. 12-16 meter kites, but given the time change, we had to leave at 3 instead of 4, leaving some people out of the down winder. only groups went for a total of 8 riders, but it was fun. my legs were burning hard after saturday in tampa. i think we made crandon to mathenson in about 18 minutes. a young rider named Will was on a 16 and pushing me very hard. my legs were just starting to go when he exploded... thank god. anyway, he will be a force in tampa.

I want to try again for saturday given the great forecast. more later.
