The morning air felt refreshing, and the breeze was cool against my cheek. The sun smiled down from above as it warmed the Earth and dried the last remaining dew drops on the grass. I cast a glance at the canoe next to the house and decided it would be a good day to go for a row:
the first row of the early spring.
I went back to the house and phoned my friend Jimmy (Jimmy was always ready for an adventure). I told him about my plan, and he readily
agreed to participate. He said he'd ride his bike over to my house after breakfast.
Once Jimmy arrived, we lifted the canoe over our heads and carried it down to the lake. It shimmered in the sunlight about 200 yards from
my house. It was a long trek to the water, but I could feel my arms strong under the welght of the canoe-much stronger than the previous year.
We reached the water and set down the canoe. We slipped off our sneakers, peeled off our socks, and pushed the canoe into the water. Jimmy
and I stepped into the water as quickly as we could (it was quite cold) and leapt into the boat. One push with our oars and we were off. The canoe
cut into the water like a knife.
