Lunch after the Paddle


Lunch after the Paddle
Originally uploaded by jmharper.
After the paddle, the organizers gave us lunch. Chicken, beans, cole slaw, barbecue, and other delicacies served in an attractive and functional styrofoam container. Then it was time to find our vehicles, load the boats, and head home.

Paddle for the border is a well run event, well worth the $30 fee. The only real complaint? 7.5 miles without a place to stop and stretch your legs is a long way to go on what is probably the first paddle of the year. Several mice plan to make it an annual outing.

Signups usually start for this event in March. It fills up quickly, as participation is limited to 200 boats.
