We are so far behind already, I am not sure we can catch up to our normal number of trips per year. The paddlers for the day were: Steve, Pat C., Bill, Teresa, and Me. Today was sunny and 90\u00b0, we only had a slight head on wind of 12-15 mph. for the first hour and then it was at our backs for the most part and was again an enjoyable day. We made the holiday tour in only 2 hours and 50 minutes plus a 41 minute break for lunch. We did see a good number of Eagles, but no real pictures as many were off in the distance, but I did catch a few imaginary close ups and got some good footage of them flying. A somewhat uneventful tour today, but very relaxing. We discovered a new Canyon, that has not been accessible to us before, so we did get to explore some new scenery.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>To watch the video click the arrow and then enlarge the screen with the icon in the lower right of the screen.
