Do be careful Wes - you're dangerously close to flaming one of my favorite seasons. Actually, it's difficult for me to choose a favorite, as I love them all - and I love paddling in all seasons. I love warmth and sunshine as much as the next person, but I'd go crazy if that's all I had. I'm even thinking of moving further north - just so I can enjoy more "real" winter paddling. There's hardly anything sweeter than getting all bundled up in fleece and drysuit, paddling in the snow, surrounded by the loveliness of winter, and coming home to a warm fire and a good book. And by the way - with so many people thinking of winter weather as "miserable", I usually enjoy a very special quietness on the water when the "pleasure" boaters are at home complaining of how "miserable" it is outside, and waiting for the sun to come back. I love paddling in the rain too - after all, it's just more water, and according to me, water is good. :-) Melissa *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced/forwarded outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: PaddleWise_at_PaddleWise.net Subscriptions: PaddleWise-request_at_PaddleWise.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Sat Sep 02 2000 - 11:20:14 PDT
