Nov 24 On The River


November 24 Two days after Thanksgiving ~  thankful to have another go at the river. Wind fairly heavy in bursts, rippling the water's surface.  Didn't see any other people, birds, fowl or critters. Just  the bare-naked trees.

The water is frosty cold.  So much so that when you first stick your finger in you don't really feel it, then a second or two later the chill is gripping.

The calves of your legs get coldest from being in contact with the bottom of the water-cold kayak, so it shortens the length of your excursions; as does the waning days, since the sun sets so much sooner now.  I try to go at the warmest point of the day, which also tends to be the windiest (early afternoon)

Can't post any more photos on BLOGS, as I've reached my free quota and to post more I'd have to pay.  Maybe I'll go back and delete some.  Or bite the bullet and pay for it.

And THANKS for perusing this blog!!
