am thrilled that you enjoyed kayaking. Love it myself. Your arms may hurt and you may be tired, but doesn't the sheer joy of it make you feel all gooey anyway?
just think, you can be underwater in a boat and now you can roll yourself over into oxygen. I am so very proud of you!
You rock!
Enjoy your weekend and continue kayaking. It's an empowering sport to take up.

thanks! i don't know if i really qualify as having taken it up - i just borrowed my brother's kayak and did a little run around their lake with my husband and sister-in-law....but i'd _like_ to do more!
went waterskiing today! i've been doing it since i was 9, but it's been about 5 years since my last opportunity. i'm woefully out of shape. but we're getting a boat that has been in the family since 1962 in about 2 weeks - a 17 ft boston whaler. today gave me a good estimate of how hard it will be to get back in shape.
