Oh, and what's with the spam in all those pictures?


About the Spam can -

I've begun selecting some small iconic item to accompany us on the
year's trips, to be photographed with the year's paddling partners
in every venue and situation. At year's end the photos of the iconic
item are assembled into a giant photo collage for the Duckhead award
ceremony.

This year that item is a can of Spam.


On the paddling trip that pretty much got me thinking about buying my first
kayak everyone on the trip got a rubber duck. That duck has made a few
other trips as well. Consider one for next year...it would seem appropriate
for the group you paddle with.


Last year a Budweiser can accompany me on 50+ trips and was
photographed with something like 170 different paddlers. Bud was also
posed for a number of bizarre, outlandish or twisted photo
opportunities. Like so:

That's the ugliest dog I've every seen.
