7/26/05. The day breaks with better weather. That means it wasn't raining - yet. I joined up with Rick (owner/operater, in blue jeans) and Nick ( in the white shirt) of Smokehouse Tours. $130 for a day long paddle including lunch. We used fiberglass tandem sea kayaks for the trip. I'm not fond of the tandem thing, but rules are rules; and these were founded by the insurance company. Christa had wanted to come, but it was pretty cool.
