Looks like it moved to Wednesday. Still in?

I will be there around 3:30, can't make it any sooner.
Just came back from SPI with Maly (Mario), we didn't have a single really windy day out of 9 so I hope to make up for it.
But it looks both Wed and Thu might be good.

shows nice wind for st jose and up from there. Miller maybe of shore
We going there (Michigan site) sometime late morning and stay to the end of the day if winds permits.

Ben,
I hope it will work out for you. With the winds veering from SW to NW (if the forecast is correct), you might have a few hours of directly onshore, howling wind, and swells to come with it in SJ, that's what made me think Miller might be slightly less brutal. We'll see tomorrow though, will try to call you before you hit the water

I am open as far as destination for tomorrow.
I will check in the morning how is the wind and go from there.
Closer the better.

Ended up on Wolf Lake, with 2 other kiters, and at least 10 windsurfers. Not a bad choice, it turned out, gusty, sure - but plenty of wind for my 12m (sometimes pretty close to tea-bagging, actually), some big jumps (for me, that is), and even most of them landed. Romantic sunset over the power lines, water still warm enough to go without booties, made up for these light days in SPI, still feeling high as a kite, without any controlled substances...
Hopefully Miller works out for tomorrow - or do you guys think St. Joe would be better?
