Two young fellows get a lesson in wind dynamics

[Big Cliff]

Yesterday afternoon after I got home from Fishing for Tyler, there were two young fellows heading out on the lake in front of our place. We watched them set up their portable and I was impressed that they even got it up with the wind blowing the way it was. I was talking to Beans giving him an update on how our day had gone when Sue let go with an "OH NO".

 

I guess the wind had caught their portable and within seconds it had come across the lake (about 1/2 a mile) and somewhere up on our shore line (we couldn't see it from the house). All I can say is I hope there wasn't too much damage to it.

 

I was going to get dressed and head out on my ATV to see if I could help them but by the time I got dressed they were already back off the ice and since I had no idea where to start looking for them at that point I didn't go out.

 

If you guys read this post, I hope everything worked out ok for you!

been there done that won't do it again...although in our case it was a lawn chair I chased across the lake (we were "smart" enough not to set up the hut)
