Not long at all, Greg. It's only about two miles from the ramp to the confluence of the Farmington and Connecticut rivers. I went more slowly than I needed, because I didn't realize how deep the water is right now. I can still picture Fishface (aka Tim) walking across the river there in my head.

 Thanks for the advice, Jim, but Kira and I were both wearing PFDs.  It's just hard to see the Tan Cabela's Guardian Series Tournament 3500 inflatable PFD against Kira's Winter camoflage parka. I love my inflatable PFD. I don't even notice that I'm wearing it.
It's one of the rules on my boat, The Other Woman, Too: You MUST wear a PFD AT ALL TIMES.
