McInnish Park - Elm Fork Trinity River - Carrollton

We had a great time on Saturday. We raced from 10:00 to 2:45. Had nine total races. Everyone had a great time. Great way to end the season. I am definitely going to have to get into shape, though. I have got to get 20 to 30 pounds off. I could beat Alan pretty easily on Saturday. He had a very off day. Yesterday, Alan and I went out for a paddle and he whipped me every time. Who knows? Jay, Brian, Josh and Mark left before we really started having fun. In our bracket race, Richard got into an Eagle so that I could be in my Xcalibur and his brother Shaun could be in Richard's Orion. We made Richard start a few seconds after the other adults. He got by us anyway, had caught up with Alan and was gaining on Rachel when he tumped when his paddle caught a log or something. But the bracket racing is a hoot. Rachel was really fighting Kelly off at the end.
