There are plenty of races all spring and you will get there - we know you can still do it! |
Thanks Char!
I didn't get your message until this mornng. The man took me out for a snack wrap last night for a consolation prize and we did grocery/drug shopping instead.
I think I overdid trying to get the boat in shape, my hands are tingling and keep cramping up, but the boat is ready for the next time!
I'm actually sitting here soaking the hands in paraffin baths! I have two of those hot wax bath machines and I have one for each hand today! I think if I had paddled, my hands would have locked on the paddle shaft and would have had to have been pried off at the end of the race.
We went down to watch the brave souls launch this morning and it was a snowy, icy, muddy mess at the launch site. People and boats sliding down the bank out of control, people falling into the water...
I didn't miss that!
