I couldn’t let a day like today go by without getting out.
The Potomac water was cold but the air was over 60.
And the sky as blue as could be.
It was a very nice change from the polar vortex that we’ve seen a couple of times this winter.
The water was cold enough that I was happy to be very conservative and mostly stay dry.
Let’s see if I can get out at least once a month the rest of 2025.
Sarah says I can count time in a kayak on our Galapagos trip as boating, but I’m not sure I’ll let myself get away with that. (Seems like salt water shouldn’t count.)
(At about 3.8, the Virginia chute wave was really calling to me; but I only surfed across once — I really didn’t want to flip today.)

Thanks
Robert, thanks. I'm going to see if I can get on the river the rest of the months this year and then I'll revisit how long my streak is.
