Happy New Year! It's time again to think about the coming year and where your kayak might take you - literally, figuratively, spiritually, mentally, emotionally, physically . . . you get the idea. I posted my goals for 2013 last year and have done a pretty good job on them. Accomplished some and not others, but the point was to reach for something and learn along the way, which I most definitely did. The thing I learned most is that there's so much to learn, I might set out to work on one skill and end up learning another one entirely! It's all good! So, here, in no particular order, are my goals for 2014: - get in better physical shape to make it easier to kayak (yes, there's lots of other good reasons, but this is a kayak message forum!) - kayak more than in 2013 - learn/practice/work on surfing - this is the tough one - not a big fan of surfing - get on those standing waves and continue to learn and have fun - this is the easy one! They were the big challenge last year and now I like them - thanks Lorrie Allen! - improve my forward stroke - this needs to be on the list every year! What are your kayaking goals for the coming year?
