Laura and Siggie kayaked yesterday on Galla Lake. Wonder if I could do this? I like the sound of the word. Kayak comes from an Inuit word meaning “man-boat” or “hunting boat.” The Inuits, you might know as “Eskimos,” lived around Greenland and used kayaks made from animal skins stretched over wooden or whale-bone frames for transportation, hunting, and fishing. The covered top and a coating of whale fat helped keep icy water outside the boat. To improve buoyancy, Inuit kayakers would lodge seal bladders filled with air in the front and back of the kayak.
The Bradford pears are all abloom. It’s a new day and a new week. Hope I can walk straighter than yesterday.
