We launched at about 12 noon and headed south to the Hasting Dam, turned around and were back at St. Paul Park I'd say at about 1 to 1:30 and headed north on the Mississippi. You were ahead of me when we passed the Wakota Bridge. I looked at the boats at the ramp there, and if you were there, I would have seen your CV23. We headed into St. Paul and turned around about one mile north of the no wake zone in downtown St. Paul. I started out with 16 gallons of gas, which translated at 4 MPG, means 64 miles so I needed to go back to the boat launch to not run out of gas. Trip was 52 miles. Could not have asked for a better day - 79 degrees and slight wind.
Thought about the various past year's boating trips and stops along the same stretch of the Mississippi and wished we could have them again.
