I do. When the nights get long and the water gets hard, I find my journal a
way to help me make it to spring.

I do keep my journal on my desktop computer, and print it out to hard copy
when I get a few pages built up. When in the field, I make notes in a
notebook, then type them onto my computer when I'm home. I was in a West
Marine store the other day, and discovered a waterproof notebook. It's
going to be a regular part of the gear next year. (This year is pretty well
done for me -- the water will be getting too hard soon, and it's too cold
for me to go paddling except in very placid, benign conditions.)
