EMS (Eastern Mountain Sports) has been advertising their big 20% off everything sale for the past week. I let Ann know about it because she's been looking to buy a kayak as another way to get otudoors and get some exercise this summer. We found one that looked like what she was looking for, at a nice price, so she went to the store, checked it out, and liked what she saw. So Friday she ordered two of them and today we went and picked them up.
Why two? Apparently one is my early birthday present, so that she won't have to go paddling alone this summer.
Is she great or what?
We still need to pick up paddles and life jackets (even with 20% off, the prices at EMS on those were a little too steep for us.) And I need to work on transport to and from Albany... roof racks are bloody expensive! So right now the kayaks are stored in a corner of her garage. The more subdued blue boat is hers, and the whackier blue patterned one is mine.
Sometime in the next couple of weeks I have no doubt we'll get them out on the water... woo hoo!
