Paddlefest 2005 Gretchen and I took a six mile trip down the Ohio River.

Nice 'volunteer' shirt You were able to test dive a few of the canoes and kayaks Somebody taking a canoe out for a quick spin Paddlers on the pond Canoe and kayak lessons were available at the festival G on the hill awaiting our canoeing lesson The put-in for Paddlefest on Saturday morning G says 'hi!' Kayaks and canoes are coming from everywhere Kayak studs G and I take our canoe down the the river The lines where long! Out into the cove, before we hit the river A perfect morning for a paddle We make friends while waiting to get our to the river Other paddlers await It's starting to get crowded G looks on Lots of folks in kayaks Water's eye view About ready to go on our six mile trip down the Ohio Others are taking photos too G paddles hard while I take pictures Laura and Chris paddle along with us down the river Downtown is in the distance Coming up to a bridge A look up at it Laura and Chris look back The back of the canoe
