Sunday I go to church where I kneel down and pray.

Yep, it’s Monday again. Everyone who’s been enjoying the coastbusters symposium, I hear about 160 in all, are now on their way home. No wait, since OUR Monday comes much later than their Monday, I guess they’ve been home for awhile now. Wow, that is sad!!!You know how that first week after a symposium goes. Instructors put their kayaks away, and veg on the couch while watching their DVD versions of Magnum P.I. While symposium students on the other hand, just leave their boats on the car and head out to their local lake Monday night!
I got a note from Justine C who it seems was lucky enough to spend three days exploring the Marlboro sounds with Paul Caffyn. For those of you who don’t know him by name, just think of Paul as the guy who has circumnavigated everything by sea kayak. If Al Gore invented the internet, then Paul certainly can claim to have invented the “modern” sea kayak expedition. Of course Karma again seeks balance, so 3 days paddling with Paul Caffyn apparently costs a long overnight layover in Changi International. Poor Justine!!
BTW, I got permission from Carpe Diem Kayaking to post some clips of Mark Schoon’s rolling demo in Madison. So that’s something to look forward to this week. Mark Schoon is co-owner of Carpe Diem along with Mel Rice, he is a BCU Coach Level 4 (Sea), BCU A1* Assessor, BCU Canoe Safety Test Assessor, ACA Advanced Open Water Coastal Kayak Instructor with the Traditional Paddling endorsement, and a Registered Maine Guide (Sea Kayaking). Which for the rest of us means, “he’s pretty good at this stuff”.
Yesterday I saw a Crocus blooming!! Spring!!!!!!!!!!!
