No. I am a canoe trip freak, but not that freaky.

Don't have any photos of canoes in my wallet.
Do have a photo of my wife; floating in the river below Sock Em Dog rapid on Section IV of the Chattooga River.

the first step is admitting you have a problem...

Don't carry photos in my wallet... canoes nor family. They are on my iphone.... canoes and family members.

Why would I have a picture of my 1972 Michicraft aluminum canoe in my wallet, don't even have one of my dog, or wife.

No wallet photos, but it appears from time to time on my monitors wallpaper.

Well, sort of. The front screen of my cell phone is a picture of my canoe in the BW and I carry it in my front pocket.

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 :)

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.

This sounds a bit like "sexting" to me.
Probably best not to disclose it if applying for a new job!

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.
