Eleven soul's from the TCT braved the 5' water levels on the rescheduled Pasta Paddle. A beautiful day and almost everyone stayed dry to enjoy the conditions, and some even had the opportunity to work on their "cowboy skills". I had a chance to use my canoe trailer for more than just a rolling canoe rack, and I am really pleased with the performance. On the down side; the 12.2 miles came and went far too quickly as boats were loaded after only 2 hours, with two twenty minute rest stops (one unscheduled), floating speed by GPS was over 5 mph. All got a chance to warm themselves by a fire while the spaghetti noodles were being preparred. I personnaly liked the sauce, and most were full when they drove home. Thanks to Ed for bringing his trailer. Will see everyone on the French Creek next week.
