It is pretty winding down there on the lower reaches.

It's unfortunate that the weather was so bad. My wife, who works for Toll Brothers, had to work the regatta. The turn out was half decent considering the weather. The participants have already asked about attending next year.

...just as a note I always liked rowing in the rain...it caused more damage to your hands (the oars spin in your hands normally but wet oars spins harder) but the coolness of the rain feels great after a hard sprint. It'slike running wind sprints in the rain...nature's air conditioner...

but rain and cold...well my joints still hurt.
