I didn't want to do it, I really didn't want to do it.
But she made me do it.

No new snow here making local skiing scratchy. So Gail wanted to paddle.
Perfect day for playing with radios and reading seemed to me, but oh no, its lets get outdoors and paddle.
Might be last chance to paddle this year.
So off to Winni we went.

20F air 37F water, wind gusting to 20+
Deck covered with ice from whitecaps.
Warmer upside down...at least until you're upright again.

I don't think I will be asked to do that again soon.
One can always hope.
At least it was short, and I will be free to play with radios the rest of the day.

At least the portage is easier. you just slide the yak on the snow all the way to the water. :-)

Ed!

Using the "she made me do it" ruse is a clever cover-up for your true nature. You loved it, it was a blast and the fact is, you wouldn't have chosen to spend the day any other way... once you did it.


See you soon in the nice warm pool.


best for these Holidays and beyond,

Jon
