Biff Wruszek, Margaret Mann and myself went for another paddle on Monday to the Statue of Liberty. It was another HOT day with quite some traffic on the water!

I guess I have enough now from BIG CITY river paddling in tropical heat! I need the fresh salty smell of the open sea! It was nice and interesting anyway. Thanks to Biff and Margaret being my “city tour guides”!
