    Afternoon shift -- a bit of a wild session. Strong winds and good sized swell. A few months ago this would have been a survival mode session for me but today I felt mostly in control. Towards the end there was a crazy offshore wind shift, a total wind shut down, and then a little snow to top it all off. As we were packing up several police officers showed up at Goat Hill to coordinate with coast guard the rescue of a kiter that was stuck offshore (presumably when the wind shut off). As I left they had eyes on the kiter and the auxilliary CG RIB was speeding out towards them. I'm hoping that the kiter is ok, and I'm feeling very grateful to live in a place where we have people looking out for us!
