April 2023 - April showers? Not this year.

The Tampa Bay region is experiencing a drought. One of the driest springs since we moved here in 1997. Despite the dryness I did manage to spend a couple of days around water covering the Big 10 Invitational women’s rowing competition in Sarasota. Also got to see the Tampa Bay Rays celebrate their 13th consecutive game to start the season. Then finally, it rained.

Teamwork

Morning jog before morning paddle

All together now

Watching a dragon fly

Calling the strokes

Sharing the load

Let’s do this

Hard strokes from the start

Scratching the surface

looking up

Thirteen in a row, baby!

Watching it rain, one drop at a time
