Packing it up...

"Pass a Grille 8th Avenue Heartache"
Music serenade

Marissa and I are heading on down to Pass a Grille on Friday; we are going to take our Kruger Cruiser sailing canoe and poke around the backwater coves and keys of this jewel of a destination.

Looks like we will miss all the UFC participants by one week; would have been really cool to see them come in. Here are some pics from last years adventure. Click Here

If you are in the area and want to paddle camp with an ocean view, we will be on Shell Key in the Pinellas Preserve.

The Fontaine Flop

We got water

Great day to get out on the water, high 60's and no breeze to speak of; I lost my third day pass to Canoecopia which ended up being a good thing, I would have missed this opportunity. Yesterday there was no open water to speak of.

Toes up, breaking in the deck for a season of barbecues at the Kappus's; at least the legs are tanner then the deck!

Warm weather really did it's magic on the ice; a stroll back down to the beach to take it all in, the water is as clear is it is going to get this next couple of weeks, amazing. More to come I am sure. ** I try to be the first out on the lake each season, I wasn't even close as I saw a kayaker and a couple of row boats tooling around; hard to believe it is only March.

No I am not talking basketball here; I am talking canoes kayaks and boats of all shapes and sizes; Waterborne sports, be it canoeing kayaking or sailing, they are a catalyst for adventure. The Ultimate Florida Challenge is in progress as well as Canoecopia; it's March Madness I tell you!
