Day 20 of the 2015 season: First Snowkite session with above freezing temperatures this season - soft conditions prevailed

Finally a warm, above freezing, bluebird day. Marginal winds but enough to do it all. A very enjoyable afternoon session at Metro Beach. Several kiters taking advantage of the conditions. The frozen rain that was on top of the snow softened enough to where it wasn't noticeable.
I'll give it a 2.5 star rating (5 stars being tops).
