I still look forward to my first
paddle of the New Year (missed a New Year's Day paddle with Kirby
Stevens and friends due to the very fortunate and timely admittance to
hospital that day), and find myself a bit emotional with other painful
complications from surgery as I write this, looking forward to getting
back on the water. I leave you with these words from Thomas Traherne (a
Celtic Saint who lived from 1637 to 1674), with apologies and deference
to my non-religious Paddlewise friends:

"You never enjoy the world aright, till the sea itself floweth in your
veins, till you are clothed with the heavens, and crowned with the
stars...till you can sing and rejoice and delight in God...you never
enjoy the world."


Doug Lloyd - back safely from a different kind of storm, thankful to
those who sent cards and positive thoughts. Iits been a "slice"  :-)


Welcome back Doug you have been missed!  I am praying you continue to
recover and re-enter the cockpit on your Nordkapp soon.

I have had my own health trials and it is amazing the perspective it gives
life.  Godspeed and good paddling! -- MZ
