It was so peaceful, I was the only person on the pond. Much to my surprise I could now lift, load and manage the kayak all by myself! Also to my surprize, I could shove it in my minivan diagonally! I grabbed a paddle, my life jacket and off I went. I was sitting on the couch drinking my coffee this morning and decided I wanted to go kayaking. ![]() I knew I had plenty of time to “muscle up” before the weather was warm enough because we have been living in perpetual winter since October. I knew the paddleboard was heavy (53 lbs) so I started doing some resistance training to build muscle so I would be able to lift it on and off my van to get it to the water. I don’t like to inconvenience anyone to go with me because I often want to stop and paint and it can be boring for others. I ordered a stand-up paddleboard a month ago because I always wanted one and I thought it would be easier to take that out than a kayak when I want to get on the water. It’s a lot of fun too! I hope to see you in class!
