I did something equally sinister. I bucked the "I was a whitewater paddler and now I'm a sea paddler" trend. I am paddling WAY more whitewater than saltwater these days. Don't get me wrong, the ocean is majestic and?one of the things?I live for, however, screaming through a class 3 or 4 mist and moss drenched drop is a rite in and of it's own. In Washington state we can actually paddle whitewater all year long, drainage by drainage and by summertime, the coast isn't 20 feet and 40 knots, what's not to love about that? Cheers, Rob G PS: Doug, I'm so glad you got your health back. A man pining for a rock garden is an awesome force to reckon with. Yes, things are evolving, decomposing, recomposing; developments taking place, new kids on the block...and quietly, in the background, the Greenlandic rebellion swells. Resistance is futile...? *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
