winter paddling
Stan MacKenzie shows it possible to paddle in the winter here. Brrr. Actually he has gone out on the ocean too - check out his new blog listed in links.
Stan seems like the reckless type! I don't see any safety gear at all, no pfd, no snowskirt, no snow pump, no snowball helmet... Will he survive the winter kayaking season, I wonder?
Alison Dyer. writer/permie living at the junction of the icy Labrador current and the balmy gulf stream - a blog about environmental issues, growing and eating organically, deliberate living, soundscapes of a changing world, kayaking the many bays of Newfoundland, the poetry of a coastline battered by storm waves and bathed in bioluminescence, the surge in Newfoundland literature, local issues like (non-appropriate) development in St. John's, Newfoundland's capital city.

Good one Claire! I like the snow pump, Michael. Wonder if it would work around the car. Beat shovelling.
