@Tucson - The closest lake of much size is about 15 miles from my house. there is a bigger one about 25 miles away, a river about 20 miles away. a different big lake about 10 miles from my office, a creek that can be paddled upstream of a dam about 2 miles from my office, a couple of sounds are about 2 hours away and the beach is 2.5 to 3 hours away. So I have a few choices.

This morning was a shocker. I weighed several times and my scale was being oddly inconsistent. But the range it kept bouncing between was 153.4 to 154.4.
