Can’t pass up a beautiful day!

It was about 85 degrees and the river was about 2.95.

A lovely time to be out on the Potomac.

Again, I took my canoe, Sarah her packraft.

We ran into several classes: SUP folk and kayakers of all ages. And still we had plenty of time to play in both Maryland and Virginia chutes.

Check out Sarah surfing the Maryland chute hole!

That may not have been entirely intentional — the first time.

But we both went back several more times.

Really a nice day and nice way to let all the news and politics drain out of our minds.
