    Snow? — Where You Are

    I live near the home of the Buffalo Bills. We have had two significant snow falls this year, 7+ feet around Thanksgiving and our Christmas blizzard which shut down Buffalo for a week leaving 6+ feet of snow and multiple deaths. February is usually a snowy month but we had 60 degrees here...

    Kevlar Curtis Nomad

    I bought a Curtis Solo Tripper about 5 years ago, paid $600. $1995, even with the few extras, is an extraordinary price. Hold your hands high, just ask what caliber the seller is using.

    Aging Adjustments

    At almost 72, carrying a basket of laundry upstairs is becoming challenge. I hesitate to think how i am going to carry a 42 pound canoe up the bank. Paddling is still OK, just a little slower than i used to go.

    The first canoe you ever PADDLED and the circumstances

    My Grandfather had a summer cottage (now mine) on a small lake in Susquehanna county in northeastern PA. He purchased a 17 foot OTCA in 1931. That canoe was the first for me. I spent summers there from the time I was 5 until 16. It is still one of my favorite places. Now, my grandkids enjoy the...
