Memorial Day Row Recap
What do you get when you mix overcast skies, high humidity, lumpy wave action from the southwest and 10 Rockers? I'll tell you what.... a perfect Memorial Day Club row that's what. In attendance were: Paulie, Stephanie, Stan and Shelia, Vivien, Chas, Karen (Guest from Melrose), Sarah, Thomas and yours truly the Captn'. Based on talent and time, we broke out into different pods (Is that what you call a group of rowers?). Anyways Chas took care of his guest and ended up doing a 2.5 miler. Pretty good showing for her first time. Stan and Shelia continue their quest for pushing the limits of longer rows. Along with Sarah and the Capt'n they came cloze to crossing the 4 mile mark (I dare say with Stan's unique zig zagging technique which I can only conclude he must have learned in a prior life as a submariner definitely rowed more than the rest of us who seem to chose the more direct route.) Kudos I say to him. Keep up the great work. Then there were the group made up of Vivien, Paulie, Stephanie and Thomas who made short work of the "round Tinker's" row. We all made is back safely to our basin and were treated to some Mem Day brownies and OJ complements of Stan and Sheila. Boats washed and tucked away, another great row is becomes a summer memory. blessings- JT
