WOW, :clap_1: I think that's one of the best yet! I love the variations in color. Looks like the phone may be a winner.
Thanks, that made my morning, and I needed it. :love:

I didn't notice SJ's picture from last night, that one is cool too. :clap_1:

John R, thinking more about your scarey incident at sea, I am reminded that too often, we forget that we need to practice/train for worse case scenerios. Most of the time, there is never an incident, but what if there were? What if my kayak began taking on water from a small crack, and I was too far out and the currents were strong? What would I do? Should I have packed that life jacket which I keep in the car? What if I, like you, get dumped out in deep water? Will I be able to climb back on? The last time I fell off my kayak was when I was riding a decent wave onto the beach. It dumped me hard, face first, onto the hard beach sand. Ouch! ... but what if I were way out and a Shark dumped me? Would I be able to calmly get back on my kayak?

We need to be able to handle those tough, and hopefully rare, situations that are not common. I think we can apply this to all aspects of life. Thanks for the gentle (on my part) reminder. Again, glad you made it back.

Wow, scary story! Glad to hear you made it back okay. I think you just gave me the motivation to go ahead and add those bulkheads to my kayak this weekend.
