The Duffel Bag

Where the spirit leads the feet will follow.

Down distant paths for unmapped miles.

Heads forget but hearts remember:

The art of living knows no bounds.

* Lake Sonoma Rain Paddle

We got out for a nice Lake Sono paddle today in the rain. The lake is brim full and nice to see. We paddled up some canyons that haven't been full for several years.

Back at Yorty Creek, we practiced some rescues and a little roll foundation work.

About 8 miles round trip.
