Dragon Boat Racing

 

coming in from our winning race. I'm 4th back on the left

 I’ve really been missing dragon  boating, as our team is finished the  season.  But this morning there  were dragon boat races on the  Gorge Waterway here in town.  Even though our team was not  participating, myself and a few of  the female members of our mixed  dragon boat team  helped fill out an  all women’s team that was short of  paddlers.  It was a beautiful day for  racing, and we had so much fun.  We even won our first race despite  the fact that half of us usually paddle on one team, and half of us usually paddle on a different team. We did lose our second race, but the beer garden and the sunshine helped to cheer us up.
