I didn't
: get a ducking fortunately, just a bad scare; a lake with an uninhabited
: shore is not a good place for a mid-winter dip.

Hi Terry,

That is scary to me. Victoria Jason paddled the Arctic and didn't have any mishaps. A little lucky I think. On the other hand Jonathan Waterman sailed a kayak in the Arctic and spilled close to shore. He felt if he had been another 50 yards further out he would never had made it in the cold water. I'm not that brave.
