Your not alone Wink........just ask the guys on the overnight boat ("REEL, REEL, REEL"....."you sure your real job isn't a hairstylist?"..........."Sleep?....It's only 3 A.M."......."get another chum block out and do it now, I can't do everything"......"what are you doing, trying to drown that fish?") Can you say "Capt. Ahab?" 

The three C's......I like it with the exception of the clergy (my pastor is a martial arts expert, taught self defense to the 10th mountain division, was and still is a highly paid bodyguard to high profile evangelists, combat certified instructor with a handgun>>dealing with the unexpected is his business). Check him out...Kurt Owen.

I guess I have just been lucky and have never had to trip with anyone that I had to ask the question "Are you for real?". My leadership philosophy is let folk generally do what they want. If they want to sleep in, fine. If they don't want to collect firewood, no bigey. As long as I have a boat and a fishing rod I can easily entertain myself. If I have to do a little extra work then so what? But the guys I have gone with so far are a real pleasure and have been open to most of my travel suggestions........

As long as I don't have to wait on someone or baby sit them, I don't really care what they do.

Group solo gives people the freedom to do their own thing and in the evening you can socialize as much/little as you want.

Tandem in a group you can do the same, as long as you/paddling partner are similar in styles.
What I hate is the idea that the majority has to cater to the needs of a single/few who decide once underway that they no longer want to do the trip they agreed too.

However, the person I cannot stand to trip with is usually me.  I have a tendency to sleep late, burn dinner, lose fish, be indecisive, get lost occasionally and often forget items in the car or at home.  Plus, I'm a real jerk.


That must mean that Pascanell is a SAINT Grin

I never cast away those who wish me goodwill. Oh well........to each their own. If you ever change your mind I never hold grudges (I hope things work out for you.)

Where were we anyway? Is this thread about planning or is it about leadership?

PJ -- Deal. 

Currently sitting in a hotel in Cleveland, after an 11 hour drive from Vermont, and looking at another 13 hours of driving to get home. 

I'll PM you when I get there.  Looking forward to bagpipe music.

While I can generally get along with anyone, I do have a loose rule-of-thumb when it comes to my camping mates; that being  I won't trip with the "3 C's": Cops, Clergy or Californians.

Cops - ALWAYS need to be in charge.  I have yet to meet an exception.


im a dispatcher, my JOB is to TELL COPS WHAT TO DO... mua ha ha!!! should someone add that to your list, i would think communications technician should fit the theme of "C's"

that said, i plan to do a trip with a bunch of cops this next year
