While I still am not sure if I'm gonna make it or not (it was a rough day at the water park in the rain yesterday, and im feeling it today for sure....i ate breakfast with my eyes closed i was so tired, lol) but if I may throw my 2 cents in (like I would if someone did care, c'mon) an earlier start is better, cause there would be less traffic, both the drive, and the river (which is the key factor, I think) plus we'll get home sooner (cause I gotta take the dog out), and yes Chris (just to make this quite possibly the longest run on sentence ever) yes, I do still paddle. I've had like 2 river days, and a couple champlain days, lol...so technically, yes, I still paddle.
So, sorry, got interupted (damn customers, at work) so I dunno if my vote counts (cause i may or may not becoming, although I'm leaning towards yes), but I would say champlain at like 7:45 leave at 8, or meet at put in at like 9 45 or 10am....that way we're on the river early, lots of free time before the hoardes come (and from what i hear, its gonna be nice weather wise).
Just my thoughts, sorry I didn't post yesterday, I had a docters appointment...then the aforementioned water park....but i'm gonna stop typing, and leave some space for someone else to reply, lol.
later
