Here are 17 little hints and two big ones:

And 20 more little hints:

One little and one very big hint:

One hint up front and lots more behind:

Coloring up the hints:

What's behind the hospital flag on the near horizon? A big HINT:

Only a few years ago this would have been the dominant presence here on July 4:

Now he has lots of competition in this famous place:

Now these guys dominate the water and the airspace:

An old HINT in the distance, a new hint in the foreground:

Kindly watch my lines as well as your own:

Skiing, not walking, on water:

Cutting across the river under full sail...er...kite:

My kite is prettier than your kite:

Think they will collide? Do we have a turf ...er..surf...battle here?

So where did I spend my Fourth?

Jim, were you on the banks of the Hood River? Kiteboarding looks like great fun - especially with the mountain in the background. Do you kiteboard?
You are correct.
Not me. Born forty years too soon. Waterskiied on one ski long ago. That's as close as I'll get to kiteboarding.
It appears to be a combination of skate boarding and skydiving....and, I suppose, kite-flying itself...in a muscular sort of way.
I won't be doing either of those any time soon either....except kite-flying.
