    Making Kydex Deck Plates

    I didn't want to hijack McCrea's post on making a Kydex Deck Plate Template so am starting a new thread on this. I did start the whole process and so far considering I've never seen this stuff before last weekend it's going much better then I thought it would. Since I bought a 2x4 sheet of it I...

    Training a pup for backcountry canoe expeditions!

    My pup Sadie, gone for a few years now, was the best canoeing friend I ever had. In the beginning, about 10 months, she joined me solo. In the beginning I tried to make her stay in a spot just beyond the center thwart but one day she decided to jump out in shallow water I'm thinking being mad at...

    Impressive Graffiti

    Back in 1975 while doing the Albany River we came up on narrow rock chocked section of the river. There was graffiti painted on the rocks as we passed by. I remember thinking that is not how one passes the rivers and places you go.

    Collector or connoisseur

    In my hay day I preferred finding new rivers to run after the last one. I personally don't like re-running a river but some are just so nice...humm...guess I'll go back for one last run. Like you thinking out loud on a cold winter night maybe taking your kids to a river you know could be a good...

    Paddling humor: one-liners said to you while paddling

    Poling up my local river I ran into the livery crowd coming down. One very serious looking woman said to me, "You Are Going The Wrong Way!" Didn't say a word but was thinking maybe they were.
