The first paddle after more than two months off…  What can I say?  I have holes that are still visible in the shoulder, lots of grinding noises, but it was being back in the water that “made my day.”  I was about as tough as 80s dance jam (which means not at all)…but, I was so stoked.

For all those folks going under the knife, or healing broken bones, dealing with new/old work, shit schedules, or frayed relationships…keep paddling.
