My sweet guy Bryan has been looking to get out on the water. These last years with small kiddos haven’t afforded us ample opportunities for hiking and canoeing, and I think we’re both ready to pick up those wonderful activities again. Last summer, Bryan joined up with some friends for a weekend on the Kickapoo River. Here’s a photo of him that a friend took of him…
He loved being out on the river, and later in the summer, he and I took an intro kayaking class at Rutabega Paddlesports. It was so fun!
After mulling it over for months, Bryan went to Canoecopia a few weeks ago and got himself a beautiful kayak. I’m so excited for him!!!
It came home yesterday. Here’s some photos:
The weather hasn’t been going much above 39 degrees this last week, but hopefully soon the air will warm, Bryan’s paddle will arrive, and he can get out on the water! If you’re in Madison and like to paddle, give him a call:)
I remember when Jason got his kayak….same look, same checking it while on the car!…..his spends more time in the garage than anywhere these days!! 🙁
Ive always wanted to try kayaking, this is the year of adventures for me, so I bet it will happen!!!
Those are the sexiest pictures of a kayak I do declare I have ever seen.
Awesome, Althea! I thought I saw your guy at Canoecopia 🙂 Great photos…
Joe said it best. Beautiful kayak. I’m hoping to go kayaking with a friend this summer. Her family has several, and there are tons of lakes around here. I always worry that My legs will get cramped, though.
These are some great photos and I and I have to agree with the comment by Joe. Love the colors!
