Rowers in the mist
May 25th, 2007 . by jessMy normal commute route follows eastern ave from delta to Baines where I cut over into friendship park. Its a nice quite interlude between eastern ave traffic and downtown traffic. This morning while gliding through the park, I heard voices coming from the river. At first I thought it might just be an echo from the construction on the other side of the road but then some movement on the water caught my eye. Suddenly two rowing teams came sliding out of the mist. I snapped a couple of pictures as quickly as I could, they’re a little fuzzy from distance (the rowers were near the south bank) and the fog on the river.
UPDATE: According to a friend of mine, this is the UC rowing team, they put in at Schmidt boat launch just off eastern ave, I’ll keep an eye out for them in the future.
Same pic, zoomed in on the rowers:
This has also been Bike To Work Week (check out http://www.cinergize.org/biketoworkweek.html for more info) here in Cincinnati. I stopped by their booth this morning and was a little disappointed with the turnout; there were only a couple other bikers. Maybe it was too early, who knows? Anyway, they had t-shirts for sale so I bought one, check it out:
