I'm not sure this qualifies, cause I've gotta work Monday but...

we're going to paddle the Tallulah Gorge in sea kayaks. Well, no, not
that Tallulah Gorge, a little downstream. We'll be on Lake Yonah, which
is the lake below Lake Tugaloo, which is formed by the Tallulah and the
Chatooga Rivers. It is a gorge, or at least was until GA Power flooded
it. The lake is about 4 miles long and very narrow. And since the banks
are pretty much vertical, I'm sure it's very deep. Probably also chilly,
around 55-60F (Deep guffaws heard from the West and North, shivers from
BD).

Some friends are having a picnic at their cabin, which is inaccessible
except by boat. They're going to run a powerboat shuttle for the other
guests, but we're going to paddle in from the boat ramp. Should be about
2 miles give or take a furlong. Everyone is bring a dish for a potluck.
We're going to make muffelettas, because they'll fit in the hatches well
;)
