Re: [Paddlewise] Trip Report (Doug's Logbook)

Debbie:

We have never met, but Arthur responded to a email question that I had for 
him some time ago and his response was well thought out, straight to the 
point and frankly very much appreciated.  Macho response - not in any 
way.  So well stated that I saved it and refer back to it on occasion when 
in a reflective mood.  From your response he is a fortunate fellow who, 
like myself, married over his head.
(that is a compliment to you both)
