I think I'm going to bolt my roofrack contraption together tomorrow.

I think I will inspect various ropes for evidence of fraying.

C'mon KMAN, you're supposed to take this seriously. I REALLY am going to
bolt my contraption together. That is, is the rain holds off, because I have
to lay it out on the picnic table to do so (and I don't want to get wet).

I think I'll also work on some biking trip reports (website). Which reminds
me, a number of the links to pictures on your website are dead-ends. Did you
know that?

Yeah, it needs a total overhaul. Moved to a new server. Thanks for the
reminder.

A paddler that does not want to get wet? I see that as the perfect
opportunity to check out your wetsuit or see how your chosen paddling
clothes work ;

Now do as I say and not as I do, cause I'm hibernating till I see better
weather.

I am happy to report that (I hope) all the links at gokayaking.ca are now
working. Anyone who finds otherwise, please let me know.

The bay here is still frozen but there's all sorts of water collecting on
the surface of the ice. We had a big rain and continuing warm temperatures,
so the day is coming...

And then there are painters!

Somewhere I say a website that described all the different lines with
their corresponding names on a 4-masted ship. Pretty amazing.

Of course being land locked and icebound will make a land lubber out of
most sane men. Hopefully for KMAN's sake the ice melts soon! TnT

But I think he should fix those broken pic links on his website first
;-) frayed sheets/line/ropes can wait.

Granted there is alot up his way that needs to be fixed, might as well
fix the broken links first. Those being his contact with the rest of us
sane folk out here. TnT
