The Wired Kayaker Roger Williams Paddle

I finally got some time to work on the footage from the Roger Williams Paddle. I learned a good deal by making many mistakes on the video. I did learn a lot on this trip paddling with other people. My previous videos are basically of me and me alone.

I did get a good 15 minutes however and I hope that you enjoy this episode of the Wired Kayaker.

I went on a paddle along the 10 mile river in search of famous places that Roger Williams went. I’ll be going with the Ten Mile River Watershed Council and Rhode Island Blueways Alliance.

Providence By Water... PAD #1198

Today I paddled with a couple of groups from Rhode Island. Last year when I started doing my Wired Kayaker (podcasts) I was written about in the Sun Chronicle. At that time Keith Gonsalves from the Ten Mile River Watershed Council learned about me and he decided to contact me recently. He asked me to come along for a paddle that would recreate the last 7 miles of Roger William’s trip to Providence. I wrote about the whole day over on the Wired Kayaker. It was an awesome day.

I’m pretty wiped out and am gonna cut it short for the night. You can see all of m photos as well as the map of where I paddled today on my Roger Williams Paddle Flickr Set.
