Windy day on the Passaic
I finally had it in my mind to get out and paddle. Not a short little jaunt on the Black River like last time but a nice paddle. The weather was supposed to be nice but, as it turns out, it was clear but windy as anything! The last time I paddled this stretch of the Passaic River (from Columbia Turnpike/South Orange Ave in Florham Park to Passaic Avenue in Short Hills) it was windy as hell. That was my first paddle with my canoe if I remember correctly. This time, I had a little more experience under my belt. It was a great time. I took my time and just really enjoyed the trip. The foliage hasn't started to come in yet so everything was still gray and muddy but it was nice. At one point, at a blow down I had to go around, I decided to break out my hammock and take a snooze. I got it all set up, started to drift off and just then, ATV riders came riding by. I freaking HATE ATV's! All in all, a wonderful day paddling.
