  3. I've never tried sculling but it looks like fun...and a lot of work:) I prefer lazing in the sailboat while Mr does all the work:)

  5. I can vouch for these after years of rowing back in Milwaukee...it's an insane workout, but at the same time a feeling that can never be replicated.

  6. the title of your post makes me think of the movie with Sandra Bullock and Harry Connick Jr of the same name. it was a good movie. love your photo but i don't know if i could paddle something so big around the lake or down a river. at least not without some help. have a great weekend.

  8. My youngest was a coxswain for a crew team. He says there's no such thing as a bad day on the water.

  9. It would be fun to be in one of these with plenty of strong musclemen doing the rowing.

  11. OK. Here's the deal. I'll sit. You row. HA! The photo is beautiful, and whenever I see movies that include a shot of people sculling it seems so romantic, somehow. Of course, the movie doesn't show the muscle pain...

  15. Don't boats make the prettiest, most evocative pictures?





    Oh my gosh!! No kidding - my word verification was boati. Seriously. Now, of course, I've lost it because I wanted to come tell you about it. Still. Pretty cool. Little things like that make me happy, you know?
