Yes, once a month is lame

For a kayaking couple's blog. What I mean is the last post was ... a month old. Sorry.

With our only rack-equipped car in the shop, the holiday weekend, and sundry things, it's been weak, our postings and outings. But we get the car back soon, have a second set of racks - we'll be blogging about the "make a ladder rack a kayak rack on a pickup topper" soon - coming for the truck, and we're jonesing laketime.

Here's a photo from the quartet paddle on the BSR that I did June 26. It was admittedly a semi-lame route, i.e., we had done this area before, and the weather was shite that day.

We did go down past the bridge, and the area is wide, but in high winds and this sky, we said, "let's just take it in to the end."

Mad props to Pat Wellner and his pal, Arnie, who both drove beaucoup to take part in the trip.

I'm gunning to hit Lake Shakotan in MN Sunday, if not sooner. We will be dialing in some lakes 'round Brookings County asap.

Don't forget Saturday's deal @ Grass Lake (www.sdcka.blogspot.com) and the July 26 "Down to Klondike" trip as well.

Peace,
Jarett

Yeah, my pickup rack is the utility rack from US Rack. It's capacity is actually 500 poinds! I have two Malone Autoloaders attached to it now to carry my boats on their sides. Malone also makes a cradle (called the Seawing, I believe).
