Jesus. I am embarrassed, but not humble. The urge to write is very ephemeral for me. It comes and goes ... mostly goes these days. When I was working at a stressful job, I wrote more. I think the writing was therapy for work angst. Now, I am a happy retired guy, so I do not have the same degree of angst. I suppose I should find a way to become less happy so I'd be inspired to write, but something seems wrong with that picture. Wes Boyd, a really big guy in a small town in the Midwest, got a bunch of us started by promising to put our stuff up on his site, which went away. I think you can find some of it, sans photos, here: http://www.kayaktrips.net/sea-kayak/cat_paddle_tales.html I'm there, and so is the Rev. Carter. I hope others are lead to write more. I really enjoy reading their stuff. Thanks to the Rev., in particular, for his inspiration over the past decade. Keep the faith, and use that wing paddle, if you have one!
