It's been a long dry spell...
Yes sir, it has! But I could have played boatball yesterday at Lincoln Lake and chose instead to go to a used bookstore, not buy anything, and then go back home. I felt that was a better use of my time than going to a boatball game at Lincoln Lake. Wnat to buy a kayak?
Hi, Carl!
Kayaking, skateboarding, running half marathons ...... where do you get all that energy ???? Send some my way. (btw: nice to read a Dave post)

Hi Dave!
Kayboarding, the best of worlds!
Hey Dave, good to see you climbed back in the pen. Very nice!
Hi, Martijn! Hi, Mule Friend! Energy? No, not at work. Truth be told, if I hadn't started exercising again, I'm not sure I could cope with, um, all the things I'm coping with. I'm sure you both know what I'm talking about!
But that's a subject for another day. Love you both and thanks for stopping by!
