I\'m down for kayaking.  One of my upcoming goals is to kayak around a nearby island-city, which must be at least 15 miles of paddling.


you, my friend, need to relax and get yourself a pack of cigarettes, a triple whopper (cheese optional), and a nice thick fudruckers milkshake

I do need to relax; however, I\'m already a big eater.

Cigarettes: "not so much".

I think I\'m going to kayaking this weekend!

Chance of rain all weekend out here.  There are lots of great places to go kayaking near me: Bay, shoreline, lakes etc.

Better end the kayaking discussion before it splits into its own thread.

Well, I dunno about kayaking, but Block Island does have parasailing for $20 every 30 mins. & miles of biking paths! :)

alli-i\'m all for kayaking!! find some info and lemme know.
i definitely want to take advantage of being at block island this time around (as opposed to last time when i had a very intoxicated and quick visit). anyone who would be interested in checking out some of the historical stuff on the island as well please let me know. definitely wanna take a look at the north lighthouse and museum. there is also a very old cemetery from the 1600s that i wouldn\'t mind seeing either. if people would be interested in checking out some of the historical sights, i\'ll get some more info and try to put a schedule together for one of the morning/afternoons that we are there.

I\'ll try to book the tickets tonight (I\'ve had a very annoying and arduous work month thus far).  I\'m planning a big visit around Block Island.

Living in Willirico inspired a trip to the real deal?

Puerto Rico is a nice place.  I\'d love to live in an aprtment 4 stories high and still have bars on my windows.  :no:

I\'d love to do all that stuff. Problem is I wont be getting in until mid/late thursday afternoon. Still, if you guys are doing anything later in the day thursday let me know! I\'m hoping to take the 3pm ferry so I should be on the island like 4/5p?

Yea, I\'m missing the wednesday show; I have tickets to rush in mansfield. :shrug:

:wah: 94 miles of bike riding???!  According to the calories burned, you\'ll drop from 156 lbs. to approx. 40 lbs. due to calories burned.  That makes you (officially) the most insane .info member ~~ besides Freddie, of course ;)

Which ferry departure time are you and Todd planning?  I\'ll probably jump aboard that one.
