| One of the paraglider pilots posted some video from Wellfleet on Friday. You can see my glider some of the time, and a little stick figure that's me, but he didn't have the camera on during the brief stretches when I was in the air. (Note: don't watch this video if you get airsick easily!) |

 | Hang gliding! (Wellfleet) 49:00 [4] +128m | |
| shoes: Wal*Mart Carson |
| Seven sled rides down the 60 foot bluff to the beach, the longest lasting probably a little over a minute. The wind was strong enough for paragliders to soar, but for hang gliding, another 5 mph would have been good. This was a day when I spent a lot more time carrying the glider up the hill (and along the beach) than it spent carrying me. Still, a day at the beach is a day at the beach, and now I've finally flown in my own home state. |

| I'm not going to log what I did today, because I don't feel like adding a category called "automotive dragging" that I'm unlikely to use again, but I will note that after my feat of strength, I was told, "You're like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Archimedes rolled into one". |

| It appears that the cold that was clearly bearing down on me a week ago was successfully averted. Sore throat for a couple of days, and a little bit of sniffles, but no full-blown illness. |
