I'm hoping that everyone else is just out paddling.

The major reason for establishing my web site (www.nwkayaking.net) is to
provide a place for me to keep my essays in one place in addition to the
fleeting postings here on Paddlewise.  Like any writer I like to be read and
if the more elaborate writings are on a web page then new people can see
them - and (hopefully) read them. Under "Kayaking Articles" on the right are
several I posted here over the years plus one opus (42,000 words - hopefully
a book one day soon) about transitioning from kayaking to
mother-ship-kayaking.

What that amounts to is basically, "just try to shut me up".  :D

Thank you Peter. We had a houseful of kids, grandkids, neighbors and friends
here and we all sat out and watched the fireworks, the brush fires, and the
parade of boats going past. It would have been worth your life to kayak out
there after dark last night. One group of what I can only assume were drunks
were in an unlighted boat... they made up for not having lights by
(illegallyl) using it as a fireworks barrage. We were kinda hoping it would
just blow up but no luck there. They competed with the city's display and
were still firing off mortars as they putted past us on their way home.
