My work also allows me to set my own hours. I am rarely on the water during the weekend and almost never during holidays. Because of these factors it is not uncommon for me to do entire trips and not see another living being. Sometimes the occasional fisherman. Perhaps this makes me a little more inclined to listen to music while paddling. Bob, I am naming the gators after some of the more prodigious Paddlewise contributors. Doug Lloyd, Duane Strosaker, and Rev. Bob have all been used.
