   I hate to resort to cliches, but it's whatever floats your boat(s).
[Actually, I like cliches-they're an easy substitute for real thought.]
Craig is limited to however many nautical doodads he can cram onto Moses
Lake and his property. The paddler known previously and referred heretofore
as Pam is limited to however many she can launch into the vast  
Pacific. My garage has room for one kayak and a few bicycles. It seems  
everyone is approaching a stable solution.

Triple digits and not loving it in Portland.
