Me nailing the wheelie at Grace Under Pressure
Well the whirl-wind road trip is over for a little while. Its time to earn some money and do some "on the couch" boating, or maybe its "off the couch", I don't know, but there is a couch in my life again and a roof over my head - many thanks to my good buddy Brett Mayer-Achoff.
The wonderful thing about working and living in Bethesda is at least you know you can go paddle anytime. Dawn Patrols, evening runs, and even the infamous lunch-break falls session...love it.
I've had the chance to get out on the Center Lines at Great Falls the last four days, and got some cool photos thanks to Brett. Saturday I also got to take Fastlane down the fall for his first time. A good time was had by all. Grace has to be one of the best feeling boofs around, especially today as the water came up a bit to about 3.75 ft on the little falls gauge.

Then you get this sweet drop
Life in the Fastlane
It was an awesome afternoon paddle and really cool light as we were taking out. Its nice being back on the Potomac for a little while paddling with friends and enjoying the wonderful escape that Great Falls provides to the local paddling community.
