When I first met you girl

You had fire in your soul

What happened your face

Of melting in snow?

Now it looks like this! – bonoYesterday, the day after my little storm paddle, not to be confused with a little Storm Paddle, I went out for a long hike through the bluffs around the lake. After stepping over about the 3rd fallen tree I started thinking maybe I had taken a bigger risk than I thought.

According to a photo caption in the September/October 2005 issue of Paddler Magazine it looks like Expedition Sea Kayaker Gemma Rawlings not only has a thing going on with those pigtails (see; Nicholas Cage in The Rock) but has also changed her last name to “Curgenven”. Apparently an 840 mile trip around Tasmania over 37 days does make you begin to feel like family! Oh wait, she must have changed it back when they returned. In the supporting text they got it right. Proving once again that saltwater IS thicker than blood. Speaking of which Justine C. just got back from the West Coast Symposium and has posted a report on her blog as well. Check that out. By the way Justine, how many Greenland Paddles does Alun have now?? Yikes!

To stick with the theme of confusion, the sunset photo above was one I took last Halloween when the Sun choose to dress up as Saturn. However it’s sunny disposition gave it away. Always a bright spot in my day I can tell you!

You’d think I was done with the split personality comparisons by now wouldn’t you? But wait, what about the upcoming interview with Phil Rohrer of the North East Wisconsin Sea Kayakers? Well, after getting Phil to agree to an interview for KayakWisconsin.net I sent him out my e-inquisition. Today John Wallace sent it back completed! (?) Now I’m wondering if I have ever saw them both in the same place at the same time. . . Be sure to check back for this interview with one of Wisconsin’s most energetic Sea Kayaking promoters. Oh yeah and a pretty nice guy as well. . .

Thanks to Chris M. for getting out the word that we were selling Mary’s Yellow NDK Explorer. Just an FYI that it IS sold. But if I come across any other Romany’s or Explorers in the area I will try to remember to let you know. Now we just have to wait until sometime in November for Mary’s Anas Acuta to come across the Atlantic in a container ship. Don’t see why they just don’t paddle it over. . I wonder if they could get Peter Bray to deliver?

In case you missed it, Sally Field (yes, we do like you. . Really) stared in Sybil which was a story about a young girl with mulitple personalities. By the way the director also really, really liked her too. Well at least more than Patty Duke.
