Default Fontana was a bust!

Fontana was a bust!

They canceled the event due to wind. It probably a good thing because it would have been miserable. Wind gust up to 60mph someone said. Nice.

We’ll have to try again in March. A few of us didn’t want to waste the day, so we hit up Big Bear for an impromptu cruise.
