Fort Desoto | 3/6/2004 | Ok Chief, despite my desire to procrastinate..I am signing up early.
50% chance I will be able to race in the winter. Consider it a donation if I don't make it :( |
CP1, 67 Miles Grande Tours | 3/7/2004 1:50:00 PM | Turned down Grannies cookies last night at to avoid DQ! ICW - crossed out to gulf at Midnight Pass. Great water til the fog moved in! Fifty feet visibility! Rescue in surf and fog! Cool! |
CP2, 174 Miles Chokoloskee | 3/10/2004 12:30:00 AM | Great paddling! Good company. Monday night ate at Cabbage Key "Hamburger in Paradise". Tuesday ate at Dairy Queen (hot fudge sunday). And went shopping for clothes. Ate lunch at Goodland with Dr. Kayak and SanDollar. My charts stink and my nav is worse. Cold and tired too. ETA CP3 Friday 10:00 a.m. |
CP3, 273 Miles Flamingo | 3/11/2004 4:15:00 PM | A great thank you to those I have paddled with: Danimal, Sharkstu, FloatingDoc, AlaskanBlister, DrKayak and SanDollar and others. Despite poor preplanning, I have made it this far and not had much time to think about it. Bad day yesterday - hyper and hypothermia and busy but finished with a 5 mile sprint. (Always feel better at night!) Found the party at Shark Point/Graveyard. Phoned home that I will spend night. Feeling good. |
Finish, 303 Miles Key Largo | 3/12/2004 8:23:00 PM | Hard, long few days keeping up with Dr. Kayak and SandDollar. Never been in the 'glades and didn't want to go it alone. Very, very tired. Never slept without shivering. Too tired to write . . . |
