[Paddlewise] canoe/birds

hi Robert,

kathy and i also enjoy birding in a 2 man canoe. :>)

a few years ago we decided that we want to cover more distance easily, and
had heard that longer boats go better than shorter ones. we rented a 17,
which was much better than our 16. ended up buying a kevlar 18 sundowner
(42 lbs).

now then, long trips (12-15 1/2 day) are easy. car topping is easy. very
sociable boat. and never any discussion about how much gear kathy can
carry.
cases of lots of suntan lotion.

glad to hear about your eagle sighting... let's hear of other birds.

bye bye
bliven
