The squalls and storms are here – it’s summer in South Florida!

The question you have to ask yourself is:

“Do I feel Lucky?”

.

(click pic for more info!)

“I’ll bet you a dollar that it will rain. Hold my paddle!“
Summer in South Florida equals squalls, storms, thunder and lightning (sometimes)!

.

Well do you, Paddler?

😉

.

The fact is that in the summer time,

luck has a lot to do with it!

Worship with the Church of the Double Bladed Paddle.

The Church doors are always open in

South Florida.

Come on in, the water is fine!

.

An apple a day will not lead you astray!
Go on, eat that apple. Gain knowledge and learn the ways of the double bladed paddle! 😉

.

I recently received new gear from the world wide

“Church of the Double Bladed Paddle” store!

The new design sticker quickly found a home on the stern of my Kirton K1 trainer “RGB“.

.

“Blind Faith”
Paddling on Whiskey Creek at Mizell-Johnson (John U Lloyd) State Park in Dania Beach.

.

The neck gaiter comes in blue, which is great since that is my favorite color! 🙂

The Church neck gaiter is long and nicely made with a tight weave which prevents wind chill around the neck. It is fully breathable when dry, however you can not actually breathe through it when wet. The tight weave definitely blocks the sun well and it will be best used for neck or scalp coverage. I am told there are at least 20 ways to wear it, so I’ll have to experiment and catch up! It also provides a measure of thermal protection from passing South Florida summer squalls when temperatures can suddenly drop 20 degrees or more. For complete UV protection from the merciless Florida sun, I expect to use mine paired with a face protector mask!

.

The neck gaiter when combined with face mask and hat, provides me with total UV sunblock protection.
It does not however provide any protection from Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant (background)! 😉
The End (of sunburn) – my total UV block solution!

The kayaker awoke before dawn, he put his spray skirt on.

He took a face from the ancient gallery.

And he paddled on down the shore.
