Default "I believe I'll go canoeing." - Thoreau (supposedly)

Happy to just receive this tee-shirt from my sister and brother-in-law. Rambler uses this quotation as the tag line on his posts in this forum with a slight embellishment directed good naturedly to our double-bladed paddling friends:

I don't know JP. Other than Mike I've noticed most open shell paddlers seem to carry double blades. They're just on separate shafts. Like the shirt and the sentiments.

You have a brain in your head.
And you have feet in your shoes.
You can put your feet in any boat you choose.
I only put this line in so it will rhyme.
Your brain will choose right if you give it time.
Use that brain before your choice is made.
Never pick a boat with a single blade.

My apologies to a REAL poet, Dr. Suess.

But the shirt rocks and thank you to JP, Ron, & Jim for teaching me so much.

Just remember canoes are kayak rescue vehicles
