Our monthly heating bills have been shocking for us (we thought a/c in SoFla was bad) but nothing compared to that.

That settles it: your plan to move closer to white water rivers and temperate climates is looking like a necessity. And btw, if you end up in this general area, one of my DH's kayaking/biking buddies works for Liquid Logic and always knows about the best closeout prices on gear.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>
*or at least I won't for the next 15 minutes.

So ouch on the gas bill, but at least your rent for all that land sounds wonderful.<br>
As for Obie, not sure if he'll be up there but could be. I hope you enjoy the kayak show!

<img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif"> That sounds like heaven. I can't wait to get back on the water and keep learning. And I have all my gear waiting for me! Do you know about this <a href="http://www.usnwc.org/" target="_blank">cool facility</a> in Charlotte? It's pretty amazing. Their "river" is much grabbier than the natural ones I've been in, but great for learning since it's harder. And you could be out there with the olympic team at any given time!
