Update: alas, it's still thundering at 9 am, so Mike and I agreed it would be best to cancel this morning's paddle. Have a great week!
Mike will update everyone on next week's paddle, which is currently scheduled for the crossing to Long Island. Meet at Friendly Valley (next to the Sioux River) beach north of Washburn.
Right now, the forecast is predicting clouds, not thunderstorms, at 10 am tomorrow morning (June 15th). Our scheduled paddle is for Roman's Pt, and that's easy to modify if condition get bad. (We can paddle along the beach instead of around the point and practice our rough water skills in a safe place; or we can paddle inside Lost Creek slough and look for otters--and if worse comes to worse, we can go to my cabin on Roman's Pt and have a cup of coffee). So I'll be down at the end of Lost Creek Rd at 10 am, ready for paddling, unless I hear thunder. Hope to see you there!
I'll be away the following week for the Long Island paddle, but I'm sure others will be enthusiastic about that great crossing.
Roman's Pt: meet at the end of Lost Creek Rd; park on the left side of the road.
