Calm Sunshine Amidst Storm Warnings

Every once and awhile - strike that. Often the weather forecasts fall far from reality. Today was one of those days.

It was a beautiful day to be on the water, sunny, warm, and a slight breeze to keep things fresh. I took my Tuesday paddle group to McNeil Bay in hopes of protection from the predicted winds, which never showed. We had a nice paddle across McNeil Bay for a view of Clover Point and Dallas Road. We came back across on the outside of the Bay's eddy, for an exploratory cruise up the lee of Trial Island. Things were calm and well within the group's abilities so the decision was made to poke around the corner and see what was up. Swells were a foot or so, and gentle.

A few rescue practices on the way towards Gonzales Point and back to McNeil Bay. Very pleasant day to be on the water in lovely Victoria.

Time on water - 3 hours
Time guiding - 3 hours
Time instructing - 1.5 hours
