Kayaking on the Squannacook from West Groton up to Vose and back. Orange boat. I've wanted to do this for quite some time, and was worried that it might be too shallow or choked with snags, but it was fine. Had to turn around because of the dam, and I didn't bother to try and find a portage route. On the way home, I stopped by David E. Ross and found a plausible looking put-in that will allow me to try the Nashua between 2A and somewhere (I think there's an underpass that can only be done going downstream that will stop me), as well as the lower section of the Squannacook. Oh, and the map shows that there's a canoe launch in West Groton just below the dam.

Okay, I'm back. Haven't had the time/motivation/energy to do any exercise for the past week or so. Hot day, decided that a bike ride would be more pleasant than a run, but I couldn't find my regular pedals and the shoes for my other pair disintegrated last time I used them. So I went old-school and grabbed a pair of pedals with toeclips and went for a ride with running shoes. And it was pleasant.
