Hot & Cold

Filed under: Kayak — jbm @ 7:35 pm

Was out paddling on Boyd Mon/Wed/Fri last week. Mon seemed like the ideal, glass-water day, but I actually liked Wed a bit better where there is enough of a breeze to keep some ripples flowing on the water. Seems like less scum is just floating around when it’s not like glass…

But then Fri demonstrated why I need to be looking into some sort of wet/dry suit. The water was nice and warm as it’s been all summer, but the combination of cool air and wind gusts made for goosebumps and a cold, wet trip. I’m not sure about the terminology and differences yet, I’ll have to start researching it.

I bought a couple of bars for the pylons on my Thule rack, but the gutter mounts don’t quite fit, there’s a nut sticking up about a millimeter too high for the door to pass as it’s shutting. I was proud of myself for keeping those pylons for so long after selling the old car, but it looks like I’ll be buying new ones for the Maxima.
