NSPN Columbus Day paddle on the Annisquam River
Shari G replied to Dan Foster's topic in Trip Reports
Thanks to Liz for organizing! Nice photos and report, Dan. Fun paddling group. BTW, did anyone find a black paddling glove? I seem to be one short :-( Shari -
Hi Liz, I would like to join you for the paddle. Not sure I can also manage Lobsta land, but will see. Shari

What a beautiful area... full of wonderful coves and islands, surrounded by mountains. Hearing the loons day and night was a real treat, as was the company! Sorry you guys missed the Sunday morning swim and warm up in the sun (just Beth and I). It was a great way to cap off the weekend! Love the photos :-)

A local Gloucester blog posted that 3 sunfish have been spotted off Halibut Point this week, so it is confirmed!

Kate, what an amazing adventure! You did a fabulous trip report and the photos are breathtaking. Do you mind if I ask what camera you use? Also, if you like to read you should check out The Shipping News, by Annie Proulx. It is set in Newfoundland and the author incorporates the harsh beauty of the island into her story, along with a band of fictional local, quirky characters. Thanks for sharing with us! Shari

And yes, for shame that BOb and I missed out!

Downeast Paddle Retreat, Sept. 5-8, Mount Desert Island
Shari G replied to ...'s topic in Trip Reports
Peter, fabulous image of the Aurora Borealis!! I heard about that and could not believe that we had JUST missed it! Drats! Robin, if you hit reply you will see the "more reply options" button appear in the lower right hand corner. Click that and you should be able to browse photos/upload them (provided you have uploaded them to your computer). hope that helps! Since you were one of the only ones who took photos on the water, I will look forward to seeing them. -

Downeast Paddle Retreat, Sept. 5-8, Mount Desert Island
Shari G replied to ...'s topic in Trip Reports
What a fabulous trip! A super fun group of people and a multitude of paddling options in a beautiful area! Peter, thanks so much for the idea and for organizing all of us... no small feat, since i believe we were a party of 20 on some days. I hope this becomes an annual event! In addition to the daily paddling, I enjoyed a full moon walk on Sand Beach and a gorgeous sunrise on top of Cadillac Mountain! I will post a few photos. For anyone who wants to see more, please PM me with your email address. I used a non-waterproof camera, so unfortunately did not record any of the spectacular mountain views as we headed back from Baker and the Cranberries. Shari -
Well said Warren, and kudos to you!!

Count me in too! Shari

Jason, where could the Seatech Pro be ordered so that modifications could be requested? Shari

Al, thanks for pulling the trip together and writing up the report. It was a really fun day all around.... Chocolate or no chocolate :-)

Got the Bug - Helpful Books, Vids, etc?
Shari G replied to BLConaway's topic in General Message Board
You might want to check out Rapid Media adventure.... They have a free newsletter which offers links to the on line magazine (click the kayak tab) and other tips, trips, and videos on random subjects. It's free, so worth a peak: newsletter@rapidmedia.com Also, the local paddling group websites have good information: NH, Southern Maine, Osprey, to name a few -
Saturday - June 28 - Level 3- Circumnavigate Cranes? Harbor Islands?
Shari G replied to alcoons's topic in Past Trips
Hi Al, I'd be interested in a Crane's circumnav if you decide on that location. Shari -
wow... thanks for all advice and suggestions!
-
I'm looking for a suggestion on a tow belt... possibly the Northwater Quick Release Tow or Sea Tech Tow Line (although it only extends to 35 ft). Oddly, I am also having NO luck finding a location or link to purchase the Northwater QR Tow . CRCK seems to have the Sea Tech model. Have also heard about an NRS model. The tow belt is for my general use on the ocean. I would like it to offer a long and shorter tow option. Thanks!

I will bring oatmeal raisin cookies :-)
