I was reading Cathy's blog and was comparing the attorney stuff... what a tragedy. What a shameful, self serving travesty attorneys seem to wrap themselves with. It's actually disgusting... sickening.
I was reviewing correspondence from local deputy prosecutors to some of the folks I work with today.
The attorneys of this country actually do hold themselves to a far higher "caste" than us uninformed, grovelling, blue collar citizens.
Anyways... back to my reflections...

I haven't been in a fun, nice, relaxing environment for quite awhile.
So, I happened to sip the merlot...
...and kayak.
Not a good mixture... merlot and kayaking. When we got there the tide was out considerably.

...and we'd have the kayaks at our disposal.
...and the grandkids watched.
They watched as we pushed off and went out to sea... daring davey jones! Daring all that resides in the Pacific Ocean and it's bays and estuaries.
Challenging the very nature of "deep sea" itself.
Yup... we paddled out. Fortified by merlot... paddled.
Paddled into the rising tides until, alas gravity took over and promptly flopped my sorry butt upside down.

The sea and the Merlot won out.
...and I stood alone, kayak bobbing upside down next to me.
...a derelict vessel among derelict vessels.
Merlot, kayak, sea... not a good combo.
But I laughed... at myself, with "them", with me. I laughed and enjoyed the fun we had.

If one ever needs fortification, merlot will do the trick. Too bad it doesn't enhance one's Kayaking skills huh?
Sounds like a great gathering in a great place. Love those grandchildren. How many do you have?
"Merlot, kayak, sea... not a good combo."
No...but everything else with it, looks like a great combo!
What a poetic post! I love it. Merlot and kayaks... and the pictures add to poetry.
