The Cold Sun


So, this was the view from my spot in the 1st Mate's Chair, on Amy's boat today at Sayer's Dam. What you can't see, and what this picture does not do justice to, is how cold it was.

WeatherBug said that it was going to be 81 degrees and sunny today, so Amy, Mel, Scott and I all gathered our boating accouterments, loaded up the boat and headed for a day of sun bathing and water sports. Well, WeatherBug lied. It was only about 70 degrees, had a windchill of probably 60 degrees, and the sun played peek-a-boo behind the clouds for our entire stay. It was still a pleasant day, between the shivers and the goosebumps... though there were no water sports, and the sunbathing was splotchy at best.

Thankfully, the summer is young...
