Scenic Hudson kayak trip

Wednesday, July 30th, 2008

I participated in a Scenic Hudson kayak trip last night to the Esopus Meadows lighthouse and other areas along the Hudson shoreline. It was lead by pro kayaker Ray Fusco, who provided equipment and training to those new to kayaking. I had a great time, met lots of new people, and of course brought along my camera for the ride.

With calm water and low wind, it was a perfect evening to drift along the river, taking in the sights of eagles, the shoreline forest, and the sun as it set behind the Catskill mountains…summer at its best.
