Comrades in paddles


Enroute from Great Island to LaManche Dean and I passed the 1,000 kilometer mark for the year.  Tobias was paddling along with Dean and snapped this shot of us having a congratulatory handshake.

Dean and I have paddled just over 50 day paddles for the year starting in January.  We've paddled in freezing temperatures, rain, wind and calm and sunny days.  There have only been 3 or 4 days when we did not paddle together or in the same group.  I made up the difference by myself so we'd reach the milestone together.

Dean is a true kayakoholic and a valued friend and paddling buddy.  Here's to many more kayak adventures and thanks Dean.  Thanks also to Tobias L for the use of this photo.
