The first week we were
back in session, a big storm blew in and backed up Elk
Creek. We had to stop classes to fill sandbags in the
pouring rain. Our efforts to raise the levee behind the
Conference Center paid off though, the flooding was
minimal. |

Craig Horvath and I
decided to take a hike up towards Chapman Point to see
the waves surging in off the Pacific. Huge logs slammed
into the dunes and made them shake and quake beneath our
feet. |

Those dunes were the
first thing the wind had hit in who knows how many
hundreds of miles. We discovered that we could run up the
back of the dunes, and leap forward into the air and the
wind would blow us back onto the top of the dune. People
pay good money for this kind of fun, all we had to do was
walk across the creek. <g> |
