Nice work Don, I noticed you went old school on your canoe, where is the Fuse... probably wrapped up in a blanket like my Zephyr....
Looks like -10ish.

Great Video.
Just for a reference point, how long did it take to edit your video?
Are you at the novice, intermediate or expert level in terms of video knowledge?

Don, Fantastic! You put me to shame, I am not even paddling these days (its frankly too dangerous for the hands here). Snowshoeing though...

Nice composition. Cool touch when you paddle out of frame only to come back in and then the fade into infinity.

Nice video! It was 53 w/ howling s. winds in Seattle today. Fun downwind on Lake Washington. You should come down one of these days!

Tell me about it, I posted the Youtube link to my facebook page today and all my SF paddler friends are talking about how we should quit our whining. Someone always has it better than you, and someone always has it worse... Nicely done, Don!

Great vid, Don. I had the same notion to go out New Year's day, but 33 degree water and 35 mph winds had me sitting at home. You've got a stronger will than I.

Kahuna, if conditions are good when you're here, we'll have to do a Maliko run.

And when you get back ring me for a paddle, I bought a good sauna suit this year

Hope this works. I remember a New Year's tradition (I think it mostly applies to Chinese New Year, but I'm willing to try it anyway) that says whatever you do on New Year's Day, you're bound to repeat throughout the year. It's an old school camera, so it didn't go on the water with me (I'm working on getting a GoPro, Rambo!). I had to do all the camera work myself as my wife refused to leave the house, especially to go paddling!
EXPLICIT LYRICS WARNING! The video contains a song, by The Young Canadians, that contains the f-word. I had to use the song as nothing else conveyed the mood. I mean no disrespect.
Enjoy, I hope
