My family has vacationed at Silver Bay (formerly YMCA) on Lake George since my Great Aunt Laura was 18 in 1905. Almost cheesy by today’s jaded standards, a great place to take the kids for summer vacation. My grandparents’ ashes are spread in the memorial garden at the chapel there. Silver...

What a contrast. Down here in Florida? I haven’t paddled since mid June. I’m excited to have some superb paddling weather now!

I’ve promised my wife I’m done buying canoes. I’ve been buying guitars instead…

Sounds like a stew candidate to me.

Go-Devil and Mud Buddy are brand names of “surface drive” motors. Like the names “xerox” and “Kleenex” these brand names have somewhat become general names for the type. These things can throw you out of a boat in an instant, and there is no “braking” or reverse on most. We have a Pro Drive at...

Some are more equal than others.

Are the retrievers hiding behind the moose?

Whatever gets you out there!

Snow already? Summer’s just gotten into full punishment and demoralization mode here in Florida. I scowl at all the “Endless Summer” license plates. Clearly bought by people who don’t work outside in it.

So like an auto auction without the buying and selling. Sounds fun. Are there non-paddling attendees watching?

What is a paddle by?

That’s a lot of firewood… planning to camp there a while?

As long as ye brung ye knaf, ye should be gtg!

M That’s just an index mark so he knows where to build the next one.

That’ll handle the whole meal!
