Minot's Light Wednesday October 30

Planning a long weekend, Wednesday 10-30 through Sunday 11-3, in Massachusetts, Wednesday looked to be the best day to paddle to Minot's Light. Leaving Virginia at 3:30 AM I was at the lighthouse at 2:30. It was a warm sunny afternoon and though the sea was calm, approaching low tide, the ledge was ...
