Summer nights

It's always special to introduce people to something you love. All bar one of tonight's crew were on thier first ever river trip, non had been in a canoe more than a handful of times. My crewmate, who is new here and had informed me "fat old men don't go in boats, was on his second ever time in a boat smaller than a ferry. I desperatly wanted him to have a good time and ended up working pretty hard! Just enough waves on wavey bits and plenty of jumping trout and a few beavers to spot on the flat bits meant he had a blast. We all did. All smiles, even though it's gone midnight!
