Carmi and I just completed our August week on Barnstable Harbor and am happy to report that this little known jewel of rowing water allowed us to get a few good workouts in. Carmi tried out her new, adjustable, flexible shaft, curved hatchet, small-handled oars designed for someone under 130 pounds. I brought my racing shell and chanced that the winds would be favorable as it has no seaworthiness or self bailer but goes like a rocket (32 pounds and almost 28 feet long). At one sweet juncture we were joined by Emily and Dave Greten and daughter Lila for a row and lunch. One of these years we will need to have a R & R day here to enjoy these tidal runs and the quiet, beautiful surroundings,
