Learning to Fly
After flying a cinematic-type drone for about a year, there’s a new addition to my “fleet”– a DJI Avata drone, which takes me into the world of First Person View (FPV) flying. The video below is my first attempt at combining two passions — kayaking and FPV drone flying. Let […]
Chilly Peshtigo River Kayaking
It was a chilly day but the river level was as high it’s been since last spring so we had to go.
Clean-up and Fun on the Wolf River
On a chilly 35°F day we spent about 4-1/2 hours on the river picking up bottles, cans, flipflops, and other trash on Section 4 of the Wolf in the Menominee Reservation in Northern Wisconsin. Here’s footage of the named rapids. In hindsight I should have shot more of the trash-gathering […]

2022 Door County Sea Kayak Symposium
In 2020 and 2021 I missed instructing at the Door County Sea Kayak Symposium, so it was great to be back this past weekend for the 2022 version in Wisconsin’s beautiful Door County, just an hour or so up the road from our place. This year we had 112 kayakers […]
