[Paddlers] 2nd Annual Astoria or Bust!

[Mary Breithaupt]

Congratulations to Adam, Mark, Joel, Peter, Paul & Steve for completing the amazing Portland to Astoria paddle! (First time for Paul and Steve!)  They arrived safely and a tad tired around 6pm.  Diane, Tom, Terri, Nicholas, Kathy & I met them with food, dry clothes and a welcome ride home. (Sorry we forgot your bike, Peter, so you could pedal back...)
Congrats also to our Portland to Goble crews who achieved a new longer distance this year of about 40 miles!  Strong, early headwinds pounded all the canoes but the sunshine kept them going!
A special thanks to Tom and Diane for hauling the trailer and canoes home safely and handling all the logistics.
Who's in for next year......?
Mary
