The move from my 20’s to my 30’s was a blur. Not because it happened so fast, but because I self-medicated with most legal/illegal/natural substances known at that time. The best I can remember, it was fun (say it often, glad there was no Facebook to document it!!)…but may contribute to why now in my 50’s I … Continue reading Torqeedo…resisted it for a while…

…and the winner is….us!
Since I have written my pity post talking about my performance at the 2019 KBF National Championship in Shreveport/Bossier Louisiana, I will not rehash that at all. I developed a solid pattern; launch, fish, come back empty handed – it just wasn’t a winning pattern. (stole that line, think it was a Ron Himmelhaver quote) … Continue reading …and the winner is….us!
Not ready for prime time….
I wish I could say I am satisfied that I finished in the top ten of our clubs season opener, finally ending a skunkfest that had me considering the end of my kayak tournament career.

Then my Joy and I promptly named her Hobie Compass “Don QuiHobie”, with no … Continue reading say hello to my little friend…the Hobie Grail…

The child in me wants to say "NO....LEAVE ME ALONE!" so I don't have to talk about the first tourney of 2019. The KBF Tenvitational sponsored by Dee Zee. And technically, I don't have to share at all....I do control the typing after all...but, I am not six...and I can't pretend I wasn't here... Bienville....day … Continue reading …..no……
2019….let’s do this…
The Nissan has just shy of 120,00 miles; almost 30,000 of those miles came from last year. It definitely does not have that new truck smell - more like fish slime and dirty clothes mixed together. The R-Pod, our camper, has new tires and a new fender; the old fender blew off when the tire … Continue reading 2019….let’s do this…
