Karma – One Point in my Favor

So this past weekend was the dam release on the Tohickon Creek, an event that usually marks the end of the kayaking season for the Mid-Atlantic region. Well on my last run down the creek I saw a paddle caught under some rocks below pyramid rock. I was able to eddy out and grab it. It was a very nice paddle and knew I would be pissed if I had lost my paddle, let alone have to fork out a few hundred bucks to replace it. So I brought it down to the take out with me and when I got home posted a note on the Philadelphia Canoe Club’s message forum. I was contacted by a few folks who had lost paddles over the weekend. But I was also contacted by a person who was able to describe the paddle all the way down to the ‘PUFF’ sticker.
I am glad I was able to get the paddle back to the person. I know it does not seem like much in the grand scheme of things, but maybe more of those little things will be beneficial in the long run. I hope he remembers this situation and is able to reciprocate.
