quests

"sunshine is my quest" -- winston churchill

the days vary with the hour now and a sunlit day is rare indeed.  with blogger not allowing uploads from my files for a couple weeks i struggled not being able to journal.  i realize no one reads or views these lines but to mine own self be true..  now the contributions record the difficulty achieving the open water, with ice shelf on the ramp intermittently with thickness to resist rocks and hot words.  last week my sledge created an opening and the weight of me in the boat broke through to the channel.  saturday i put in at the south tailwater thinking the ramp was unusable but after carrying the boat 100 yards and paddling downriver i found the ramp free of ice and laughing at me heartily.  nature always wins.. rather like sidewalks and little girl's knees..
