Water, water everywhere.....

KP on the Russian River

Just the sound of it ; 'canoeing down the Russian River' sounds blissful, and it was. not a cloud in the sky, boiling temperatures, beer in the water cooler and two capable paddlers! We canoed a 10 mile stretch stopping off from time to time to swim and lounge around in the sun. We had escaped most of the other 'paddlers' (mainly large noisy families, and large can mean both individual size or numbers in the party, they are interchangable!) and had a peaceful, unbelievably relaxing day, punctuated only by our own laughter and Shana serenading me as we ambled down stream. Heaven.
