Josh's recent message about travel to Angesley, UK reminded
me of a discussion awhile back about a possilble Paddlewise
get-together in Florida for a winter warmwater paddle.  Has
anything more been done to organize this?

Yes, John.  We have about 10 or 12 people, not all confirmed.  Marinell Davis 
in Miami is working on a page, but it's in the early stages and she has just 
gone out of town for a few days.

I initially tried to get camping reservations for the group, but everything 
is booked when people leave the previous year.  So....someone suggested we 
try and get hosts and they became the Homeless Paddlers - this was also 
helpful because of not wanting it to be called a Paddlewise reunion - just a 
bunch of people who met online and who want to get together.

I wrote a long article for the latest Paradise Paddlers newsletter and anyone 
who would like to read the whole thing is welcome to write to me on the back 
channel.

I believe Marinell has reproduced most of the biographical info on her page.  
We are also in the process of collecting photographs.  the site has maps and 
additional info

http://www.netrox.net/~marinell/paddlers/paddlers.htm

We will be posting put-in times and locations for anyone who just wants to 
show up.  Saturday morning is for Indian Key/Lignum Vitae and Sunday is for 
Big Pine Key.

I remember that you did send me a note a while back, John.  Are you 
interested in joining us?

It sure has.  A number of us are getting together in Florida over the
President's Day weekend - Sandy Kramer is coordinating it.  I don't know
how you can have missed the messages, but I'll forward a few to you
offline, so as not to tie up the list.  Do you think you might be
interested?  If so, you'll have to line up a flight pretty quickly.

It's the weekend of February 17-19, and it's a generic celebration of all
the presidents.  When I was a child we had two holidays in February:
Lincoln's birthday on the12th & Washington's on the 22nd.  Somewhere
along the way, someone got the idea of combining them, and maybe adding
all the other presidents, so we get only one day off instead of two.
