Haven't been doing much blogging, but have been doing a lot of kayaking. Yesterday it was the Eel River again, and it was an interesting run with mostly women showing up. The weather report was dicey, but it never did thunderstorm although it clouded up and looked threatening a few times. I did have a close encounter with a log jam yesterday, nothing dangerous, the current just pulled me a little closer than I wanted to be (I was a very active paddler!) Then this morning,  it was sobering to read the newspaper article  about an area kayaker who encountered a similar situation but never resurfaced.
