1st Falmouth Paddle of 2008

This morning Allison and I got up early and headed over tot he Falmouth Heights Beach. We loaded the boats onto Dad's truck and took them over to the beach. We set off and headed towards Falmouth Harbor. We paddled along the Falmouth Heights beach, out past the swim markers and down to the harbor.

Along the way we watched cormorants skim the waves, a large jellyfish laze about and fishermen trying their luck on the jetties.

Once in the Falmouth Harbor we paddled in and among the boats of various sizes. It was pretty early so there weren't many people out and about. However there was this one seagull that was claiming a boat as its own.

After a while in the Harbor we turned about and headed for home.

When we got back to the start of Heights Beach we saw Dad pulling his truck out of the street next to ours, he drove down to the end of the beach and parked. We paddled up to shore and got out. It was a nice leisurely paddle for the day.

Kayaking on Long Pond

Yesterday morning I went out for a nice paddle on Long Pond in Falmouth, MA. I hadn't been kayaking all week although I had my boat on my car all week long and carted it to and from work each day in hopes that I would get on the water. But I did not, things prevented me from being able to do so.

I took my video camera and my Canon Sd800is with me. This time I went with the intention of making Wired Kayaker Podcast #4. This time I went and documented the two areas where people can go and park. Then I filmed my intro and also filmed with the camera facing the bow and the water. I am going to try something different with Episode #4. I am going to do some voice over in the podcast. That way I can write a script and things would sound a little better. There will still be me in my cowboy hat chatting about what I see on the water.

I met a kayak fisherman on the water too. He had his own homemade rig for two rods and a work platform for his tackle box. He was having good luck on Long Pond too.

Episode three may or may not be up sometime this week. I am heading to Canada tomorrow and probably won't have much time, but I will try and get something up. Then Episdoe #4 will come the week or so afterwards. Still no article in the newspaper and it has been two weeks. I wonder when it will be released.

Here are some photos from yesterday's paddle.
