http://paddleflorida.blogspot.com/2013/05/sanibel-island.html
Paddle Florida (it's been naughty). Saturday, May 18, 2013. View in Google Earth. I was in Fort Myers for the weekend, so brought my kayak with me to get in some paddling time around Sanibel. I left home early Friday morning and arrived at the Sanibel Causeway around 12:00. . From the causeway, I could see Fort Myers Beach in the distance, as well as the Sanibel lighthouse on the southern tip of the island. Rounded the point to paddle the Gulf side. A pod of dolphins passed between me and the beach.

Puck It - I'm going to play: January 2011
http://beginninghockey.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Puck It - I'm going to play. The boy-child (11 years old) and I (42 years old) will learn how to play hockey together. Monday, January 24, 2011. So … yeah … not my most impressive showing at the clinic …. On the plus-side, I have a new stick. The old one was wood, no flex at all and cost $19.99. New one’s composite, has some flex which may help my shot and was $69 – which is still on the cheap side, but it’s much lighter. If the goalie’s missed the puck behind the net, we’re supposed to sen...We enter ...

Paddle Florida (it's been naughty). Tuesday, May 22, 2012. Afternoon on the Wekiva. An afternoon paddle on the Wekiva today, but no pictures or GPS due to battery issues. Those should be resolved before my next paddle, though. I started at Wekiva Springs State Park and turned onto Rock Springs Run to paddle upstream until the water became to shallow to continue. Then I returned to the Wekiva and paddled downstream past the marina for an hour or two. First was a carry strap I got from topkayaker.net.

Paddle Florida (it's been naughty). Monday, May 31, 2010. Things I Want to Do. This is the Florida-list of paddles I want to do and doesn’t include U.S. or world trips. I’ve always found it a bit strange that for all the time I’ve spent in the Keys I’ve never paddled 7-Mile Bridge. View in Google Earth. I’ve paddled portions of the Suwannee, including Florida’s rapids. Has an annual trip that sounds like an absolute blast. View Suwannee Music Camp to Manatee Spr. In a larger map.

Puck It - I'm going to play: February 2012
http://beginninghockey.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Puck It - I'm going to play. The boy-child (11 years old) and I (42 years old) will learn how to play hockey together. Monday, February 27, 2012. I made it all the way through tonight’s clinic, missing no reps; but it was a light crowd, so the coach went pretty easy on us – no end-to-end after the skating drill. I’m still happy I made it through the whole thing and I learned why we wear our facemask. So skating drill started with one rep of “suicides”:. Next was some shooting/deflection drills:. Okay, s...

Paddle Florida (it's been naughty). Saturday, December 17, 2011. Saint Joseph Sound Spoil Islands. December in Florida. On the water at 11:30, clear blue skies and 72-degrees. This was a trip to visit the spoil islands in Saint Joseph Sound to pick one for camping in a few weeks. Spoil islands are the result of dredging channels – the material dredged from the bottom of the channel is loaded on a barge and the barge is periodically dumped to the side of the channel. Open in Google Earth. I set course f...
