blackburn challenge organized by the cape ann rowing club is a 20 mile open water race around cape ann the rocky cape that projects into the atlantic ocean north of boston massachusetts it s a well known and well established event last year was the 25th running of the race and there was one participant who had been in all 25 of them the fun part is that the race is open to all seaworthy oar or paddle powered craft classes include men s and women s banks dories fixed seat singles doubles multi oars with cox multi oars without cox sliding seat singles doubles single double touring kayaks single double racing kayaks surf skis and outrigger canoes even in the last couple of years paddleboards so it s quite a colorful flotilla out there on the ocean during the race johna and i have raced

it was the posters that finally made it real everyone has a 9 11 story mine isn t all that exceptional i was in midtown manhattan that morning preparing for a sales trip to new jersey i d been awake since about 2 am working on a project for work and the new world trade center when the sirens first started i didn t think much of it at least at first but they kept going and going and going finally i looked out of the window and saw the column of smoke rising into the clear pale blue air and realized something serious was going on then i turned on the tv and saw what everyone else did the smoke the helicopters the collapse of the towers one by one continue reading 30 comments posted in architecture art culture life new york city society tagged 9 11 9 11 memorial american history manhattan

april 17 2012 by vladimir brezina 21 comments by vladimir brezina it s heartwarming to see how much the coast guard loves and cherishes its birds it spares no effort to erect along every waterway ingenious structures calculated to be ideal for gulls cormorants even ospreys to rest on and now that it s spring to build their nests and raise their young safe from predators and from human intrusion well except for some kayakers 21 comments posted in nature tagged animals birds coast guard cormorants gulls hudson river navigational aids new york harbor ospreys weekly photo challenge two subjects take two posted on april 14 2012 by vladimir brezina 16 comments by vladimir brezina this week s photo challenge is two subjects i ve already posted one response to this challenge but i can t resist having another go a few days ago we had occasion to take the circle line boat ride around manhattan the boat was packed i came ready with my camera but i couldn t decide whether to focus figuratively as well as literally on the magnificent sights of the city coming into view one after another or on the activities of other passengers they too were snapping photos of the sights but even more of each other you just know what is to the left of the frame in the next photo don t you that s right the money shot 16 comments posted in new york city photography tagged boat cruise circle line

block island lies in the middle of block island sound about ten miles south of the main rhode island coast it s a fairly large island beautiful in the coastal new england manner with long sandy beaches grassy dunes and bluffs beach roses and beach peas warm turquoise waters this is in the summer of course although in winter when the tourists and the summer residents leave the windswept largely treeless island no doubt has its own bleak beauty too there are some paddling possibilities on the island itself but to my mind the main point of block island is to paddle out to it and back again a distinct step up from the open water paddles across new york harbor s lower bay or across long island sound which are still fairly sheltered the block island paddle offers true open ocean experience the open water of block island sound is exposed from all directions but particularly from the south any conditions out on the open atlantic will be felt with little attenuation in the sound there is nowhere to hide from them on the other hand the paddle is not so long and many days in the summer are predictably benign so this paddle will test mainly your navigational skills and your critical judgement about weather and tidal currents but if that judgement should fail also your rough water paddling skills continue reading 35 comments posted in kayaking tagged block island kayak
