[Paddlewise] places, greener grass

     I've lived, fished, boated, snorkled, skied, etc. in both 
Florida and Oregon, and both states are a hoot for the outdoor 
recreationist. However, right now I'm recommending that everyone 
move to Florida, or stay where you are. It rains an awful lot in 
Oregon, you know. 
     As an aside, the football coach at Oregon State Univ. made a 
base salary of 504,000 (U.S. dollars. not pesos), while the Govenor 
(an MD) made 100,000, and the president of OSU (a Ph.D.) made around 160,000.
The head coaches at U. of F. and FSU probably made a 
lot more. What does this have to do with kayaking? I have no idea!
