Patti is a new friend. She was the third person in our kayaking course at Lake Milo and is a real hoot. Judi and I met her last week on our first night of training with Mark. We have our class twice a week but from the first class this gal was a natural. I unfortunately missed the time when she tried a racing kayak, since I had a birthday party after our session. I know she'll probably go far with it if she tries. Her kids are also doing a kayaking course as well in the mornings, they were there the first night with her husband and were super into it.
On our latest paddling night the four of us paddled against the post-rain currents up through Milo, middle lake and to the small island in the middle of Doctor's Lake. The techniques and tips that Mark has shown us has made the experience of paddling much more fluid, easier on the body and quite fun. If you have the chance on Monday or Wednesday next week, drive by Milo between 6-7 and check us out- from the shore I am sure our little group looks rather graceful out there on the water. I don't know much about Patti but she is very kind, has a wonderful sense of humour, loves taking adventures whether it is a road trip to Ontario or a camping trip to Keji. I can tell she really appreciates being active and embracing life. Thanks for the picture Patti- hope you and the family have a wonderful summer!!
