Dear Editor,
I read with interest your “
Summer Fun” issue [May 16], and noticed that windsurfing, kite-surfing, and sailing were not included. Yes, all need water, and Lake Travis' water sports footprint may continue to shrink, but they have major advantages over waterskiing, wakeboarding, and wakesurfing. For example: There is no power boat needed, no boat slip needed for windsurfing or kite-surfing, and no fuel and maintenance needed. Once on the water, there are no unhealthy smog-forming emissions or unwanted carbon emissions emitted that are causing lake levels to drop. There's just exhilaration, quiet, and fun.
