Round One Dinghy
I had been waiting all weekend for an epic dinghy ride. People had talked about the late night chats and star gazing done in the dinghy. Had I seen any of this? No. The dinghy kept getting vetoed. Buncha jerks. So when the thought of an active dinghy ride came up... needless to say I was all in.
We only had four paddles... which were quickly snapped up by Darin, Cathy, Ben and Scott. There is something empowering about having a paddle. Makes you feel in control... But being in the water. It ignites a distant memory of summer swim lessons. And slowly I recall why I love water. Its comfortable (even if its freezing). I have no fear, and it wouldnt and couldnt hurt me. And I really like that.
Yes the water was freezing. Hypothermia freezing. But there's something completely enchanting about riding down such a picturesque creek. 
I love Cathy's reaction in this vid. She is speechless. And let me tell you, that doesnt happen often.
The dinghy was a little low in air... needless to say... we all got a little wet.
Guess a few more of us shoulda prepared to get wet.
Then we carried the dinghy back for more!
