I got a digital photo frame for xmas. Love it put it on my desk at work. I just put a few pictures.
One of my co-workers said to me..
"Ya know most people put pictures of thier wife and kids on those."
There are now both :)

no..but when i was in the Army 67-69-,i carried an ad from one of the canoe trippers in my wallet..the one with the guys paddling past a big beaver lodge in think.i found it in the ad section of a Outdoor Life magazine in the Day Room and told myself when i get out of this mess that's the first thing i'm going to do..
it's just a level trail thru the woods.

nojob--the canoe trip was about the third thing.
i was living back in NY and went up to Algonquin Park in Canada for two weeks.as you can see by the way the map is folded i just carried it in my shirt pocket.took very basic gear and paddled all over,went down some nasty rapids and across some big lakes in bad weather but at the time i thought i was invincible.i came out to Minnesota to finish college and canoe around.since 1969 i have not missed a single year where i took a canoe trip.

I do keep a picture of me in my canoe.
Joy is a great teacher, but so is dispair. Wonder is a great teacher, but so is confusion. Hope is a great teacher, but so is disillusionment. And life is a great teacher, but so is death. To deny yourself any of those in any aspect is not experiencing life totally.

JB..bad news..i know a fellow who's brother also did not come home and he has a photo of him glued to the inside of his canoe.i asked once about it and he just said something like when he go's to the BW his brother come with..sort of gives you an idea of how special canoe country is that it make someone want to do that.
