Broken starter in car equals getting more stuff done around the house

I have not been paddling as much as i would like to as there is no good water around at all. I have been keeping busy doing some photo shoots plus going crazy in my regular day job which is a good thing. I went to the photography show in Toronto last weekend only to come home and have the starter fail in my car. The bad side of it was I want to go paddling in Minden. Th good side of it was I was able to get the pool opened even though it is green and a bunch of stuff done around the house. I hope I get to go paddling soon!

April and May are almost gone

Well ... I cannot believe how quick time passes these days. I managed to get my first ever run on the Upper Black River near Queensboro, Ontario just shortly after my trip down to ALF. The weekend after that was a run down Beaver Creek near Marmora which ended up in some swimming and ripping a hole in the ass of my drysuit. Yes the water was cold. I just came back from the annual C1 Armada down in the USA. This year it was on the Cheat River in West Virginia. I managed to have a great run on the friday on the Upper Yough in Maryland running some great class 4/5 drops with no problem at all. The saturday was a run down the Cheat Canyon. The highlight of the day was coming off the river into the middle of a organized rave complete with techno music. I am going to try and keep this blog updated on a regular basis .... I hope
