After my visit to the local river on Friday, March 19th, 2021, I decided that my winter windsurfing was definitely OVER !!
That weekend we went up North and even that lake looked risky and I did NOT venture onto the ice with the windsurf equipment... (okay, I did walk on it to check it out, but NO windsurfing !!)
Unfortunately, five days later, a kitesurfer disappeared on Lac Champlain :-(
He was 62 years old and a professional photographer. Feels like he was a kindred spirit living in a parallel universe.
I feel for his family, friends, neighbours and anyone who knew him. I did not know him, but feel deeply saddened by such a loss - what a waste :-(
