I have seen studies related to the age old dilemma of whether you are a morning person (lark) or a night person (owl). Hands down I am an owl. I do not like to wake up and once I get out of bed it seems like hours before I am fully functioning. I stay late at the office a lot because I do my best work then. It was fortunate that I was never a "high maintenance" female who took a long time to get put together in the morning.
So what does this have to do about Virginia State Parks you're asking? Well, regardless of whether you are a lark or owl, False Cape State Park has a kayak program right up your alley during the month of October. They offer an early bird paddle and a sunset paddle.

I might be a night owl but there is one coping mechanism if you also like sunrises - just wait and go to bed AFTER the sunrise!
