The trick is in what one emphasizes. We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves happy. The amount of work is the same.

It's under three weeks till the start of the MR340. (www.rivermiles.com) Phil and I will be racing 340 miles down the Missouri River together. We'll be paddling a 26 foot carbon fiber racing canoe. As racing canoes go, it is kind of a barge, but for this river it should be just right. The river has been close to flood stage most of the summer, but is not flooding like the Mississippi. It should be a fast race. We are targeting 55 hours as our time to complete the race. In that time we'll hopefully sleep for a few hours, but depending on how things go we may skip it and just push on. If you want to follow the progress of the race, check out their website during the race and they should have a leaderboard and race progress information posted.

This is awesome. Sadly it reminds me of our house. I think we are 'those people with all those cats...'
