River Ramblers Kettle Run

The Kettle River with the River Ramblers

I'm in the off-white Piroullet. Notice just behind Mark (in the purple Dagger) is Teacher's Hole. Ron (to my left in the orange kayak) is showing me his kettle River short-cuts while I try out the Piroullet for the afternoon's Kettle River Festival downriver race. This was my third run in 24 hours. By the time of the race, I had nothing left. The timer got confused but I believe I got 4th best time overall.

Mississippi River Challenge - Beach Captain

Being put in charge of the beach at Fort Snelling during 2008 Mississippi River Challenge was self-inflicted but painless. I put the sign out to let people know where to beach their kayaks if they were only padding one day and needed a shuttle up the hill.
