ok, so......we had an impromptu water-gathering this afternoon......3 different families with kayaks...lots of kayaks....in fact...i now covet a one-person folbot from england that is a canvas skin covering a foldable frame.......lightest craft i have ever beheld.....or navigated.....this was quite a shock to my youngest, when i got in and sped off.....she had no idea that in my youth we lived near enough to a major canoeing river that every girlscout, 4-H, church and school group i was ever involved with took a canoeing trip each year....and i must say that this single canvas-skin kayak was a pleasure to steer...i can see myself enjoying an afternoon in such a boat. ...maybe not enough to forgo a trip to paris.......which is roughly an equal exchange.......maybe when my ship comes in.......

ok, so for the record, blogger spell check does not recognize the word canoeing.....and so i had to look it up the old-fashioned way......just to be sure.....
