This morning I was on the water at 6:15. It was hazy, so there was no brilliant sunrise, but the haze dissipated while I was out. Since I don’t yet have a dry bag for my camera and I’m afraid to take my cell phone even in a water-tight container, I haven’t gotten any shots from the kayak. But here it is, in the launcher after I returned at 7:10.
It’s the smallest one, and today it was on the uppermost rack. I had to wait until I saw a man at his truck a little way off. I asked his help and he easily lifted it and placed it on the deck.
Here am I, still wearing the PFD, with my whistle and car key attached to my pants.
It was already 77 degrees hot when I arrived, and there was only the barest little occasional breeze. The water was still.
That white boat is actually derelict and ugly up close.
I paddled across to the hospital on the opposite shore and around to the other side of the hospital before heading back.
You can see some residual haziness in this direction.
Back to the Hanover Street bridge, an old drawbridge.
Home by 8:00, after taking these pictures and filling my gas tank.
You know how to make your life the best it can be! We had 2 days of DC weather here……aaaaaaackkkkkk!
So JoWynn – whilst I would normally be eating my breakfast you would be kayaking….you are amazing!
Great photographs…’lakescapes’ – love the horizontal Bridge and Boat photo – of course the best photo is the one of you! Wonderful.
Kayaking at that time of day is beneficial too…before the heat of the day. My dear brother, Brian, who lives in Howard County had told me temperatures were high – as is the humidity.
Here we have quite cool temperatures at the moment not exceeding 70 – no doubt it will get warmer as we head towards mid-June.
We have a lake here in St Albans…but no boats or kayaks allowed on it!! Shame….
‘bye for now – keep on with your active life.
Love to you and Ernie from Jill
