End of Season Mud
Well, I went out paddling on Tuesday (November 4) after I voted in the mid-term election, and again today (November 5). Tuesday’s trip was a nice paddle, and a pretty day to be on the water, but the low tide was really lame, for some, inexplicable reason. I did wade around a bit, and found … Continue reading

A Great Way to Start the Day
I found some jeans that I can barely wriggle my ass into. I have to do an awkward little dance to get them over my hips. This morning, I put together the rest of the look. I cut off my long sleeved camo shirt, used a rope for a belt, and slipped into my diving … Continue reading
