The title might sound like a bit of hyperbole, but it’s actually true. And now that it’s dark November it’s a good time to spend more time treating yourself to a good shave, or maybe get ideas for Christmas gifts (also for gifts to yourself). But first a bit of… Continue reading
The building project for this year became a Greenland paddle. I had been interested in getting one for some time after hearing about their advantages compared with Euro style paddles. But since I’m using my bike to get to the kayak club house a one piece paddle seemed unpractical to… Continue reading
