Paddle on the 10 Mile River

10 Mile River Paddle

This morning I met up with Keith Gonsalves from the Ten Mile River Watershed Council and Bill from RICKA. Both guys know a lot about the rivers in Rhode Island. The three of us paddled up river to Hunt’s Mill in East Providence. Did you know that there is 44 acres of forest and park land that is right in East Providence. And anyone can go and have a nice picnic or kayak or hike there? I didn’t and now I do.

We paddled, jokes and I filmed much of the trip. I’m going to be compiling the video for a future Wired Kayaker podcast so be on the lookout, in the meantime you can see the photos that I took from the day. They are part of my Wired Kayaker Flickr Set The image above is the map that my GiSTEQ PhotoTrackr made, it was pretty accurate too. Click on it for a larger image.

Where I’ll be.. Next Year

One Particular Harbor

This past weekend Allison and I took Eva to the Newport Folk Festival. It was a great time there on the lawn at Fort Adams State Park. But I think I would have rather had a chance to listen to the music from the water. It was a huge party out on the boats. Next year I’m going to get some people together who want to do some kayaking and listening to some good folk music. So I have a year to figure out where to put my boat in and what sort of things I would need for a day on the water in the Newport Harbor.
