   Apparently, nobody is free of nonsense. Starting 1 Jan 2010, Oregon
will require a permit for all canoes and kayaks over a certain length.
I expect the bicycle permit system will soon follow. As you may or may not
know, Oregon already requires a permit to take a walk in the national
forests (actually, it's a federal permit called a Northwest Forest Pass).
Oh,yes, the Oregon State Parks day use fee increases Jan 1 also. Needless
to say, those of us who enjoy the outdoors are "pleased as punch", since
this is a family show.
