June 27, 201213 yr Lanes Cove to Rockport and Straitsmouth Launch Time: 10:30 am Return by 4:30 pm I trust this corresponds with the Saturday, June 30th, 2012 trip listed in the calendar. I'm very interested, but I am also signed up to attend Friday's Moving Water Workshop. So I may be too sore and tired to paddle that far Saturday. I hope to see you at the put-in on Saturday, but don't wait for me if I don't show up. I'll be deciding based on how I feel Saturday morning.
June 27, 201213 yr I'm interested. I hope there'll be a rock gardening pod; Blaine told me to nibble and now I want to take a big bite!
June 27, 201213 yr I'm interested. I hope there'll be a rock gardening pod; Blaine told me to nibble and now I want to take a big bite! Glad to hear you're psyched for more Cathy. Just keep in mind that the rocks sometimes like to bite back. But it's not the rocks that will get you -- it's that big wave you didn't see coming! Keep looking over your shoulder. Spoken from hard-won experience. Blaine

My leg/hip is being operated on soon due to my surfing a SOT kayak into a partially submerged reef in FLA over 8 years ago! The three titanium screws are coming out and some fancy new hardware is going in.
