Centennial paddle
It is what it is
The weather was crappy but I got out anyway. I had to. It was my 100th time in the kayak this year. I think it was around Dean's 80th. He'd also have 100 if he didn't have a day job. My lucky!
I'm one lucky guy and I know it. That's why I picked "Kuviasuktok" as my paddling handle; translated from Inuktitut means "is happy".
I enjoy the outdoors and I enjoy it without the noise of motorized transportation. I prefer a kayak over a motorboat, skiis over skidoos and mountainbike over motorcycle. I've been active all my life and take great care of the vessel life has been poured into for me. My family is my first priority. My childern are all selfstanding adults now, I'm retired and anxious to do stuff I've always wanted to but didn't have time or money to before. One of those things is seakayaking.
Today was my 82nd. Perhaps if you'd stay home until about mid December I might catch up...
ReplyDeleteNaaa, can't do that! 82 is a pretty big number too Dean under the circumstances (you didn't paddle much in Jan and Feb).
