A Very Good Saturday

I'm by no means athletic, however recently, I've been a bit interested in kayaking. There are tons of kayakers in Annapolis and I've been watching them lately.  It doesn't look that terribly difficult and it also looks like a great workout - something I'm severely lacking.  So I told the bestie that I may want us to give it a shot and she reminded me that she not only owns kayaks but also has access to a dock on the Magothy.  So off we went this morning.  

Fearing I may drown and/or fall in the Magothy (a fate worse than death in my opinion), I was slightly scared.  However, after just a few minutes, I got the hang of it and really started loving it!  It was a great workout but it wasn't too taxing or terrifying.  Turning back around, became a bit of a struggle which is where the brunt of the workout came into play, but after a few more minutes than I would have liked, I finally got the hang of that too.  Can't wait to go again!
 Notice the still waters - might account for the fact that I found kayaking easy...Something tells me it's bit more worrisome when the water doesn't look like glass.
Unfortunately there are no photos of me in the actual kayak or from the actual water.  I decided not to tempt fate by learning a new sport, not dying in the process AND attempting not to drop said phone in the Magothy.  

Then after the Kayak adventure it was off to see Darius Rucker at Merriweather.  I love Darius Rucker!  I was never much of a fan of Hootie and the Blowfish, but since he's started singing country, he's been one of my faves.  He was an awesome show; singing for almost 2 straight hours!  He even managed to sing a few Hootie and the Blowfish songs, which made the crowd go wild.


All in all - a very good Saturday!
