This group was started since there were no kayaking Meetup groups on Lake Norman, a shame ... ... ... It's great to start pre-dawn and get back home by noon. Nothing beats starting before the sky is lit and then watching the earth come to life. Then you'll have the rest of the day to do errands and all that land-lover stuff that weekends are made of.
