I don't typically paddle along the Northern Virgina shore, but I figured on Sunday morning, it'd be as quiet as it gets. The GW Parkway noise isn't too bad once past Spout Run. #dckayaking

The headwind coming down the Potomac mitigated the heat and humidity fairly well 🙂 The tailwind going back though was not even noticeable🙃. #dckayaking

Cherishing what shade I can find on this steamy summer day. The boaters aren't even out in this #dckayaking

I am planning on a Tuesday blog post of Juneteenth #dckayaking locations.

Also, I learned of another Fairfax County location, so I am building out that profile on the site too.

Was planning on Key Bridge, but it didn't open until 10, so I pivoted to Fletchers. Strong current, but no anglers on the DC shore, so I had an approach to Chain Bridge. Headwind coming back. #dckayaking

Other than the occasional airliner, it's a good quiet day to paddle downstream from the Wharf #dckayaking

WHY?!

TIL that Ballpark Boathouse wasn't able to open on schedule because of last weekend's weather. I was apparently the first one out of the season too.

Again.

I'll have to check my records - I think I was first out in 2021. #dckayaking
