Re: Washburn Paddling Trips May 31, June 1 + June 2

Hey Bea, Norm and all interested parties.

We plan to be there Saturday at 8am for launch at 8:30. Any suggestions about how much extra time to allow for Cape traffic coming from Quincy? We are just neurotic enough to get places early but the southbound traffic on a hot weekend is legendary.

Re: charles river kayak loses permit for newton boathouse

...in that old, damp, crowded and exciting Boathouse, young enthusiastic paddlers (with extreme patience) spoke to us about KAYAKS! Those teenage salesmen of fun and adventure got us hooked and we will be grateful for that. Sorry to see it pass.

Re: Duxbury Powder Point Bridge - Saturday Noon - March 30,

As I am now (kind of) getting use to my new camera and software. I am posting pictures of the shack on an island, in the middle of the salt marsh. Part of it was under water but it still seemed to be used for all sorts of occasions. Let us not be too specific. I noticed a few fuzzy spots on the left...

Re: Provincetown Whale Watch: April 27, Saturday - New Date

First posting with my new camera.

I was sorry that I didn't get a good picture of Kris on his first Turkey Paddle.
Part of the problem is that he usually had this HUGE camera plastered to his face.

I'll be on the lookout next time we paddle.

Cheers and thanks to Norm for organizing a great day.

I posted this to the meetup site but it hasn't registered on my email account. (Of note Josko's message did but not mine) uh... Are we still meeting?
