If I Drown, You Can Have My Walkman

Tomorrow I leave for a weekend canoeing/camping adventure.

Let's take inventory, shall we? Ten novice canoers (I know what a canoe IS, that counts for something, right?), a river, five tents, eight cases of beer, no electricity, one port-a-potty, and fire. Nothing could go wrong, right?

Canoeing? That's where those dozen people go down white water rapids right????????????

Nothing can go wrong, I'll lead you all!

Sound like the annual trips I used to take with friends - the Raft and Draft.

You'll have a blast! Don't forget sunscreen.

i am doing the exact same thing this weekend...scary...

Yeah, you're pretty safe unless you tip or the canoe cracks. But that's during the day. At night you're pretty safe as long as no one brings 'shrooms! ;)

Peace

You forgot the beer bong, or if you are drinking cans, a sharp metal object to puncture them with in order to facilitate the process those young-uns call 'shotgunning'. Gosh.

That is a pure equation for canoeing JOY!!! You're going to have a blast. Make sure you wrap anything important in plastic...and if you're canoeing near Bears, put the food up a tree...I MEAN IT

I think you will need more beer...

Enjoy yourself, I'm heading out tomorrow for some canoeing too, but with less beer than your party!

Sounds like fun to me! I love camping. Good to see you enjoy it too. Enjoy yourself!

You could run out of beer, then you'd have a major situation on your hands.

Your walkman? Hello -- it's the iPod or nuthin', sweetheart. ;)

Nothing could go wrong? You only took 8 cases of beer for 10 people when there is nothing to do but drink in the middle of no where.

I think a beer shortage in that situation is tragic!

I hope that you had a fabulous time! I look forward to reading the stories!

I've always wanted a Walkman

So like, were there killings induced by chronic beer starvation?

Should we ready ourselves for news reports about " A tragic loss of life when some novice canoers didn't remember the basics and forgot to pack the recognised minimum saftey standard of 1 case of beer per person"?
Sigh.
It's an all too common story.

Of course, you have those pyschic powers to magic yourself up some beer so really, there should be no problem.

Dear Lord, don't let her powers fail her now...

Hope you're having a marvelous time! By the time you're reading this, you'll be back ... OR, I'll be listening to some very fine tunes on your Walkman. In either case, I'll bet you had yourself some great fun.

Just Me said...

Okay, stop it!
That's a Monday AND a Tuesday without a new entry.
WE. ARE. WORRIED.

But more than worried, disconcerted by the break in routine. You blog EVERY week-day. We rely on you.
What am I supposed to read with my coffee and chocolate bar?

Anyone would think you didn't care or something!
COME BACK!

please?
