I play traditional Irish music 3 or 4 nights a week, have a small recording
studio, scuba dive and cycle. My cycling is the big loser (in terms of
available time), but it's not a safe sport in Florida. I just picked up a
white water boat for ocean surfing and rivers, so now I have paddling
decisions as well.

What do I do, other than kayaking and my micro-job? Well, I'm embarrassed
when I compare myself to many of you, who seem to be much more physically
active.

As for me, I wrecked my knees long ago, so I can't run any more. Not just
"shouldn't run" - I can't. I have a rather serious neck problem so I'm
forbidden to ride my bicycle. I don't much enjoy swimming for exercise. I
never learned rock-climbing.

So I paddle. I walk a few miles, a few times each week. I putter around with
some roses I have, and I putter around with some of the boats I've built. I
take a few photographs. I read. I watch just enough TV to see the 6:30 PM
news most days.

That's it - and it's enough, for me.
