Hello my dear friend Bert. I miss you.
My friend Bill (the older gent RIP 4 years now) always liked you and remembered the conversations .. He was such a trooper. Had bad shingles pain for 10 years. Bent over like crazy but pushed on and on at 87 years of age. He was always ready for a rugged hike with my dogs. I took him kayaking(I have several) at a gentle spot where he wouldn’t get in trouble with screens that are deadly for young healthy folk). I considered him a project that God gave me. He was kind, giving and energetic. DIRT POOR and lonely. Thanks for helping to make him happy
April is coming!!
I’ll unwrap my kayak and hit the lake. I try my best to make two trips a week. My first this year will be voyage 118.
Kayaking is fantastic exercise. I paddle a while and then rest. While resting I take up my trusty fly rod and slay the Blue gills.
I paddle on flat water. I was talking to a guy I met and he had a photo of him self kayaking over a 30’ rapid. I’m too old for that adventure
