http://newbiepaddler.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 28, 2012. Mattawoman Creek, Indian Head, Maryland. I heard about Mattawoman Creek from a kayaking group in the area. They mentioned about the lotus blossom which I had never known that the flower even existed in this country and the best part is that there is a boat rental! So I just have to see it! The lotus blossoms are along the creek. So just paddle toward East or you reach Occoquan Bay. The rental office has a map showing the location of the blossoms for you to look at. Where over 100...

Newbie Paddler: April 2012

Sunday, April 22, 2012. Kayak Stroke Recap and Refinement. I don't know who invented all these strokes for us to learn. They definitely had plenty of time to play around! Today another student and I took a kayak class with Brian from Ckapco. Ewwlike it's not confusing enough already. Image from My 365 Project - Day 113. It sounds confusing, doesn't it? But do you notice that I use only 2 strokes to accomplish a U-turn? Sunday, April 15, 2012. The Art of Making a Paddle. What always intrigues me is the wa...

Sunday, October 23, 2011. My Solo Canoe: Burke Lake Park, Virginia. Back to the lake for the second time. (My first time was during the summer. I posted the photos when I had a chance.) My main goals today were to take photos of fall foliage and to practice my cross-forward stroke. I got there around 1:30 but the staff suggested me to wait until 2 pm to get a half-day rate. Thank you! Ah oh, did I just spill out the secret to the world? There was no point to fight the wind. Just let the boat spin. It's a...

Why I Live in DC. I have lived in DC nearly all of my adult life (excepting 18 months when I moved home when I first became ill). I love love love this city. I joke it's because I like white marble. There's a lot of that here! I do like what the white marble represents - ideals, Rome, politics and aspiration (most of the white marble buildings were built before the United States grew into them).

Sunday, October 28, 2012. First Paddling to Riley's Lock/Seneca Creek Aqueduct. About two months ago I started planning a fall paddling tour for people at the office to join. And today (Saturday) is the day. (Yep. Me. Setting up a social event. Never done that. ha ha. Paddling really takes over me.). The wind is at NE 9 mph and the temperature is 68'F high. Mostly cloudy with a bit of sun. After Brian, my instructor from CKAPCO. The fact that Miss Sandy (a hurricane) will wipe out all the fall color with...
