Story by Burr Preston
The orange windsock at the hang glider site indicated perfect winds for flying. Not a single glider was in the air. No one was readying a glider in the staging area. The only glider in sight was tucked away in its traveling case atop the carrying rack of a plumber’s truck in the parking lot. It was 10 AM on Saturday morning.
The driver of the truck informed the group he intended to fly, but was waiting for his buddy. He allowed that the people who flew here were not early risers.
Gary, Bob, Pam, Chris, Harold, and Laurie decided to go over to the native plant nursery situated by the entrance from Skyline Blvd. Being a first-time visitor to the site, I chose to snoop around the place. The National Sea Shore management has several interesting displays portraying the history of the site—it was fortified for both World War I and II and later contained a Nike missile launching site under the present parking lot. Other placards described the geology and the wind currents that make hang gliding possible.
