Some Things Never Change


Marek's (Mountain Wayfarer) blog post "One Year Ago in Fitness Paddling - December 2006", where he listed his blog postings from last December, seemed an interesting exercise. I too looked back at my previous December posts. Interestingly there were 5 postings, and they are still relevant, a year later.
  1. It's Beginning to Look Like a Boat, was a post about my son Alan and his college friends building their Wa'apa canoes they raced in the 2007 WaterTribe Everglades Challenge. Hmmm, here we are December 2007 and Alan is at it again, building a sailboat with Paul for the 2008 EC.

  2. Where are the Women, a post about the lack of women registered in the 2007 EC. Same story for 2008, KiwiBird and I are again the only solo women registered for EC, also SandDollar in the UFC.

  3. Lunch Time at the Movies, I previewed the WaterTribe 2006 UFC video to my office mates. They all cheer me on during these races, and this offered a taste of the adventure. WaterTribe is now selling a 2nd video that has just been released, it's on my X-mas list.

  4. My New Mantra, fifty is the new thirty. I still use this mantra and it'll be good for a few more years :)

  5. A Big Change was my comments on Derrick's then new blog and blog name, from Kayak Wisconsin to Kayak Quixotica. This year, the name stays the same, but he's got a nice new look.
