That would be great. I'm sure Alaska is a dream trip for many paddlers on
this list, though Baja rates high with a lot of the warmer-seeking puppies
on this list. I just think the "scale" is so much more epic in Alaska, while
being more accessible to west coasters than more exotic, colder locations
like Greenland, etc.

I'll see how my health improves. I had left atrium ablation Thursday, which
was far more involved than right atrium ablation. They spent almost 3 hours
on one vein alone that was a total anomaly (I have three veins holes and one
super large one with fibrous muscle tissue growing into it, rather than the
usual 4 small ones). Doc said he'd never seen anything like it. This is the
same doctor who kicked me out of his office two years ago saying there was
nothing wrong with me. Heh, heh, showed him. I was back in fibrillation
yesterday, so a quick fix may prove elusive. Let's keep things backchannel,
until I can produce an Alaska trip report. :-)
