I still read everything you two post. Last question I posted, I got
flamed by a troll. Made me gun shy.

However, one of these days I'm going to go paddling with Mike. Single
barrel bourbon and I know he's a coffee drinker. What else can you ask for?

PS Mike - the baby is now 14 weeks and likes getting her face wet in the
water. After January we'll start with the swimming classes. Getting
ready for the family paddle!

Oci-One,

I e-mailed him as well, but also posted the answer here.

Once I have a few minutes to spare I'll write up a trip report from
the past weekend's Gentlemen's Paddling Weekend. We got out on a bunch
of eastern shore cypress swamp creeks at flood, and paddled under the
lunar eclipse as well.

The Gent's trip - Good weekend, good paddling, good friends, good
single barrel bourbon.



If virginia.edu is UVA, I pass through Charlottesville once a month in
each direction between Maryland and North Carolina -- usually leaning
hard on the gas pedal! Weekend of the hurricane I paddled with Regina
O'Donnell, whose husband is on the UVA med school faculty, on a couple
of Charlottesville-area streams.

Mike's an entertaining guy to boat with (don't tell him I said so,
though), so don't miss the chance when you get it.

It is indeed UVA. I have the lavish post of Assistant Director of
Outdoor Recreation here at UVA. If you roll through in the morning, let
me know and I can arrange a breakfast rendezvous.

I spent the hurricane weekend trying to keep the wife and baby happy in
a house that had no water or electricity. However, once we got a couple
of 5 gallon jugs full of water, it was pretty much like camping out in
your own house. I drove over the Rivanna on my way to work on Monday
and was thinking about all the water I was missing.
