Colonialsinger will most likely serenade on the water (remember Todd!).
What are you guys doing for entertainment? Watching the movie Wild Hogs?

Great report, Nelson. Honestly, I think you should try and submit it to some sort of adventure/ kayak publication. It had a nice mix of thrill and tips!

And, Chip, are you wearing a tu-tu?

Thanks, Pat, for your offer. For now I am going to add a piece of string/rope, so I at least can pull the skeg out that way. Next time we connect, I'll let you take a look at it. Hope your physical therapy is going well, and that the elbow surgery was successful. We miss you on the water! NorwayLady

Hi Nelson. I don't know what I did. I guess the big problem is that I forget it is there, so I keep dragging the kayak up on shore with the skeg down! Not good. Dr. Ron looked at it without too much luck, so I really need to spend some time on it. I have an in-house mechanic, and he said he would he...

Hi Ron and Joyce. Glad you are thinking about joining us tomorrow. The paddle from the Driftway lauch out to the Spit is a short protected paddle (maybe 1 mile +). Up the North River is a different story. Joyce, I am not in any position to determine if your boat is suitable for this. Ron, Linda and ...

We should have enough water to make it out to the Spit, plus we plan to explore the North River a little. Anyone i...

Hi guys.

It might be a help to post a skill level when a trip is in the planning stage.

We should also make sure we always have a lead boat and a "sweep" boat. This is kayaking 101, but I don't think we ever have had a designated "sweep"? Correct me if I am wrong.

My kids said the Tempest looked like a shriveled peapod...I don't even know how to spell that!!! That's the kind of support you get from teen age girls.

Can't wait to get on the water. And yes, Nelson, I am more than ready!
