The geese have built a nest by the dock. They are very aggressive. Never has there been a grater incentive to get on and off the dock fast.
Today we were trying to dock and geese were hissing and the Cox was struggling to get us close enough. We couldn’t reach the dock and no one would come pull us in. After a new minutes of trying to wiggle ourselves in, our stroke said, “Screw it. Hold my oar.” She passed her oar to seven seat, stood up in the boat, and jumped a solid couple feet to the dock. The geese were pissed and coming for blood at that point. Our stroke seat proceeded to chase the geese down the dock screaming, “get out of here you fuckers!” The geese fled and Stroke pulled us in.
