See you on the River Styx this Halloween, Fellow Paddlers!

Always wear a PFD and Sunscreen.

old (2007), poor quality vid, but this is my ‘monster roll’:

(you never know what lurks below the FL waters)
my 1st monster roll was in the chilly waters of Lake Superior at one of the ‘old’ ‘Gales Of November’ trips (late ‘80s’?) (Stan had it on video)

IT Is What It Is

Tim Burton’s takes on Wind In the Willows.
Raisins’ d’etre for no head to hit pillow.
When some flying dutchman spirit’s a boat,
there’s a King of a clown saying, “Down here they all float!”

Well blow me down–Ya never know what a Monster Roll in the big chill of Lake Superior will do to a yakker(If I had any veins, it would make me blood run cold!)

And me ole friend, CWDH: Ye now have been marked as Dead Poets Society Laureate fer all eternity!! Note short pipe protruding from fore deck of me boat–Some say it’s to hold sail, others for use as crematorium smoke stack and where I keeps me bone collection

Ah there…Castoff proves that canoes as well as kayaks are paddled by kindred spirits >:) !

So bought a pumpkin to make a jack-a-lantern. Dropped it and it broke. Made me mellon-choly. However I fixed it with a pumpkin patch!

Pumpkin circumference/ pumpkin diameter = pumpkin Pi

My daughter just gave me some pumpkin bread . :smiley:

A patch be very clever… As a denizen of underworld gardening, I meself make it a point to grow my own pumpkin “patch.” Hence, Jack O’Lantern replacements are always at skeletal hand…

It means food processor, oven, and other things grow into pumpkin pie.
