If you keep saying "before the season ends," this is the weekend...

Leaves are turning, ghost stories are flowing Sunday evening, and there's a Sunday morning nature paddle with your name on it. Live music at Island Time on Saturday, and five boathouses open for one more lap of the river. The whole plan is on screen. Go.

Send this to your paddle buddy.
