A scarcity of rain since mid-April has water in the Gunpowder Falls at two-thirds average flow. A cool and serene kayak run from Monkton to Phoenix on Sunday was often slow and rocky, and low water exposed lots of trash. We filled a bag with bottles and cans, but missed lots more. Tubers and other visitors, it seems, prefer light beer to heartier brews, coconut rum and vitamin water to soft drinks. A real cleanup day could net a truckload of refuse, shoes and tires.
