Well, it has been cold, and a lot of the water is in a solid state, but I need to keep my monthly streak going and I have been told that the lower Pawtuxet River stays reliably ice-free. If you want to join me, I'll be at the Rhodes on the Pawtuxet access at noon. Not sure if I'll paddle upstream, downstream or both, but either way we'll end up in the same place. Weather looks to be sunny, dry, without a lot of wind. It should go without saying that a wetsuit or dry suit is mandatory (change of clothes in a dry bag won't cut it this time of year). Post-paddle beer is a strong possibility. Call or text 418.2838 if you plan to join me. -Chuck
