Gay Pride Weekend

Another beautiful weekend in Seattle.  On Saturday the weather was sunny and warm ~ 85F so it was time to get on the water. I went out on the paddle board accompanied by Alice on a kayak.  It felt great until a tow-person rowing scull ran me down on the way back.  It’s a little disconcerting to look down and see the bow of another boat right along side of and moving much quicker.   Needless to say I ended in the water with quite a bruise where an oar hit my ankle.  Afterwards we went out on the KatieG for a three hour cruise – and made it back safely 🙂
