Happy Halloween!

Thanks to the end of Daylight Savings Time, the sun was rising at about the same time we were going through the end of our warm-up routine. This won't do; sunrise has been associated with the end of practice and putting food in my stomach since September. We're all Pavlovian dogs, or maybe we're just not used to sunlight. r a Halloween

There was a nice fog on a stretch of the lake we're rowing on (our home river has been washed out due to flooding) this morning, and with the sun coming up, it didn't burn off and we were able to see it. One minute we were doing pieces with another eight about 40 feet away on starboard, and the next thing, all your senses can detect are the slicing of the blades through the water and the motor of the coaches launch. Very spooky, yet apt.
