How often have I paddled from South Haven pier towards Van Buren state park? Maybe in the hundreds of times? I don’t know. It is different every time. After kayak surfing in San Diego, I feel like I’ve cheated on a very loyal, but tempestuous milky skinned midwestern girl in favor of a [...]

I just got word from Conor Mihell, the organizer of the Naturally Superiors Greenland Symposium that I will be assisting with traditional paddling instruction in Wawa Ontario for their 2nd Annual Traditional Paddling Symposium. Naturally Superiors is situated right in the mouth of the Michipicoten River mouth, near Wawa Ontario on Lake [...] Now as always, I am waiting for the storms of spring to bring some waves my way. The waiting is killing me. Watching the lake cam when it’s calm is like watching a television tuned to a dead channel. After a while you think you start to see a pattern where there is [...] I began paddling in 1999 after trying my brother in law’s Dagger Seeker on Thumb Lake in Northern Lower Michigan. I always loved sailing in our small family boat. My only regret was that I couldn’t be in closer contact with the water. I got hooked instantly.

I hope not. Laura and I went to the people’s republic of Ann Arbor for a show last night. Subset Rubdown, and Xiu Xiu were slotted together to play the Blind Pig. Rant one Turns out some sort of a miscommunication with the booking agent happened. The doors weren’t open until 8:00. Sunset Rubdown got [...] The Typewriter Museum of course. The museum is rife with imagery for the aspiring historical nut looking to find everything from typewriter postcards, unusual models, and even typewriter erotica. Yes you heard me. Scantily clad, provocative women wrapping their stocking draped legs across the keyboard of a 1920 Remington portable may not [...] Newcastle forward and finisher Michael Owen is back from his Crucia Ligament injury after two surgeries. He scored in a closed door match in the 10th minute against Scottish Gretna. I can’t wait to see some highlight of Mr. Owen sneaking one across the line… So until we can see one open [...] |
