In Response To: Why I gave up paddling.... (Davis)

I have a friend who is 81, has had a triple bypass, and still paddles. Still builds kayaks as a winter project, too. I aspire to be just like him in that regard 40 years from now (minus the triple bypass, of course).

They'll take my paddle away when it's pried from my cold, dead fingers. YMMV
