Happy Thanksgiving from windy (but still not frozen) Lake Champlain!

What better way to celebrate Thanksgiving than scudding back and forth across the lake on a windsurfer?!?! For this adrenaline-charged adventure with my intrepid bride I give thanks to the wind, the lake, health, and dry suits. Oh, and I almost forget, an especial thanks is reserved for our oven that was busy roasting the turkey while we were chasing gusts and bumps. Happy Thanksgiving!

Errant may be on the hard for the winter, but there’s no reason we can’t take advantage of a good breeze on Lake Champlain, even if it’s November 23.

Not the windiest of days, but cold water and colder air, so we bundled up in our drysuits and hoods.

Update: I just received two November windsurfing photographs (the one above and the one below) from our Vermont friend, Elizabeth Bickford Wells.
