: Bryan is in a beautiful spot to paddle. What other reason do you need to get
: up there? :)

: As for Canoecopia. I'm hoping to be able to go this year, and may have
: conviced a friend to go, too. It is not a long trip from Northern IL to
: Madison, but gas is expensive. Carpooling/ridesharing is definitely
: possible, and an enjoyable way to spend time talking. I met this friend on
: a trip to Grand Marais and the boundary waters. Perhaps between us we can
: bend your ear, or twist your arm, and convince you to head up there, too.

: E-mail me closer to March and we can see if our schedules can be matched up.

Paul, Bryan, Bill,
Looks like the local plastic kayak manufacture is going to send me to Canocopia with my Patagonia Ice Field slideshow. If this does happen, it would be good to meet more of the builders from this board. I'll let you know when there is some certainty on this.

Got a neat tour of another local shop last night. Bill and Sandy Childs have aquired George Calkins Bartender boats. Bill did a nice presentation on George and some of the thousands of plywood boats that he has built.

Best,
