Can we count this one?
I went paddling with Gary today for the fist time today. It wasn't
his first time in a kayak. He had drifted down the Neuse river
before, but this was his first time really paddling. He had a great
time. Does this mean that not everyone's first time stinks? It
wasn't his first time, but it was close. Can I count this one?
He said he felt awkward at first, but he got the hang of it fairly
quickly. He was also fearless on the water. A large boat took off
near us and he took off right into it's 3 foot high wake. I would
have never done that when I first started. I introduced him to edging
and he nearly got the hang of that too.
