The picture thing is an Oops.  Any help on how to do that?


I use Imgur.com.  They will host your pics for free and it's very easy to use and the have "share links" that you click and then paste on here. 

For example, the time I picked up these 2 homeless guys hitch hiking and bought them a steak dinner.

TomT -

"Homeless" guys?  Those two handsome devils?!  Nah! Rather, I expect they were "boat people."  No doubt they left their more-than-ample shelters in their boats....

Jimbo   Cool

I know one of them hangs around a camp site almost every night. Maybe they are just lot.

The book "The Last of the Mohicans" by James Finimore Cooper published in 1826 was inspired by a book published by my great, great, great grandfather Ezra titled "We're Running Out of Mohicans" published in 1823.  He sued but lost.

It was our last day with an exit that took us past Bayley Bay to Prarie Portage.  We left earlier hoping to beat the wind, but with each stroke, the wind was increasing. As we rounded Ottawa Island and battled the waves, we heard this through the mist, clear as a bell.

I think most of us seasoned paddlers have heard that, maybe even hummed a few bars when we got caught in bad seas.  Cry Grin Grin
