SOLO KAYAKER RAISES BREAST CANCER FUNDS

ILLUSTRATION: Above: Leigh Moorhouse is attempting a solo kayak trek

up the East Coast to raise $100,000 for the Breast Cancer Fund to

help combat a disease that strikes about 150,000 women every year.

She began her 2,100-mile ``Live and Let Live'' trip in April from

Key Largo, Fla., and hopes to reach Eastport, Maine, in August.

At right: Moorhouse chats with Trina Jaehnigen of Richmond while

kayaking to Waterside harbor while passing through Norfolk on Sunday

afternoon. About 15 local kayakers paddled out with her from the

Hague to Waterside.
