For the past three years in Ithaca, there has been feet of snow on the ground in late February. Fortunately, this year the weather has been unbelievable and we were lucky enough to be on the water this morning for practice.

Out on the lake, turning around to head back in the inlet.

While the practice overall was great (steady state rowing, firm press), the best part happened when Coach found a fish before practice and picked it up with his net.
