There was a nice breeze coming off the river as we met at 8am – Warren and Lynne, Chris, Johnny Mac, Anne, Lidia and Glen. A flock of 20+ small, white, fast somethings flew up-river and then disappeared onto the water. The city was doing some construction work around the adventure park which was a…

There were only supposed to be 3 of us there: Marion, Lindly and Glen. At 08:00 we called Lindly to check and she had thought it would be bad weather so decided last night not to come. We told her it was looking pretty good – overcast but dry enough – so she said she…
