After tests on Monday and Wednesday, I had Thursday and Friday off (plus Labor Day!). We got someone to watch the kids and did a short canoe trip down the Buffalo Bayou. It's fun because it's right in the heart of the city and you end up downtown. The water isn't amazing and there's definitely some trash, but overall it feels like a river. It was a fun 8 miles of paddling and there were even a few tiny bumps. The route is actually part of an official Texas paddletrail, and so far this has been one of the cooler things about Houston. The put-in and take-out are actually pretty inconvenient, but it was still lots of fun.
