Land Ho!

The weather is finally taking a turn for the better. The sun has been shining and the temperature is warming up a little bit. We took advantage of this wonderful weekend weather and launched the canoe. It was a gorgeous day...albeit a bit chilly when the wind blew. We did a 12 mile paddle down the James from the Meadows put in to the ?? take out (I can't remember the name). It was so much fun. There are islands along the length of the whole paddle so we stopped and explored a lot. All told, it about about a 5 hour expedition and it was a wonderful way to soak in the sun. Cy did great too. We always get a bit concerned as to whether he's going to get bored half way through but he's pretty good about entertaining himself (only child syndrome) and can play for hours. Plus we had snacks, and Lord knows that helps:)
