Chet's new coat

Chet was feeling the cold and damp here in Oregon so I bought him a coat. It is a warm fleece with lime green on one side and blue on the other. Am still looking for a suitable raincoat for him. He will be glad to be in warm Baja sunshine.

Finally -- some pictures of Baja kayaking

Last campsite on our 4 night 5 day camping/kayaking trip. Second picture is me towrd end of trip in my white hat. Another picture shows a practice session for rollovers. And lastly, my practice with a single kayak.............for daily paddling I was in a double with one of the guides.
