boys and their toys

As soon as
I wake up
I dream about my tub
I like the water deep
so it covers up my butt

Well, for those days when the water outside is frozen solid and the local pool is closed here’s an option, the bath tub. I have 2 toy kayaks and another couple models that are always willing to have a day in the warm, tropical waters of my bathtub. The one above got a custom paint job and was a gift from Gryphon earlier this year. He was pretty excited. I knew something was up when the house was completely quiet for a day. Somewhere behind a closed door their was a secret painting party going on. Of course if you’re kayak is getting a hands on customization, chances are it’s going to have stars.
John over at Kayak IM is getting a new one of a kind 3 piece carbon (yeah, I said carbon. . .) kayak from Rockpool. He’ll have regular updates on his blog here. Apparently he won’t be getting the final product until next year, but since he’s started now I think that it qualifies as his Christmas present. Another of our blogger buddies

I’ve gotten a brand new Rockpool Menai 18 delivered a while ago, but I haven’t seen it yet. I’m in Italy and the kayak is in Denmark. In a week or two I’ll know what I have gotten for Christmas
The design should be blue with few stars of varying size, a bit like the Alaw Bach shown on this photo: http://www.kayakquixotica.com/wp-content/gallery/rockpool/IMG_4174.jpg
I can’t wait to try it.
