Kayaking Season 2011

The weather for the past few weeks has been "beautiful on work days, cold, windy and rainy on weekends." Today was cloudy but good enough to take the kayak out for an hour. Something moving in the marsh grass; I silently paddle up and watch from about fifteen feet away, until the raccoon suddenly sits bolt upright, looks at me, and scampers off. Fish jumping, geese swimming with their heads bobbing back and forth, an osprey hovering overhead.

There is an old joke in the Northwest: What comes after two days of rain? Monday."
