If you only knew how long this took me to figure out I-Movie. Master of the Medium? I think not. Finally, on Saturday, Lois and I motored out to Wisconsin looking for open water and a chance to work with some of the new gear. My favorite, hands down, is the Stanfield Wool Unionsuit. Forget the other stuff. It’s made the old fashioned itchy-like way, up dere in Canada. I found it from Bemidji Woolen Mills and there’s no doubt in my mind, I’ll be toasty warm wearing these. Lots of other new stuff to play with too that I hope proves useful. However, if I don’t have to test out the drysuit again, I’ll count myself fortunate. All my plans to take you further up the St. Croix today in today’s post were for naught. Like many fellows, not reading directions cost me in time. Here’s one still from the movie. As long as I was so full of air I thought, “Why not?” See you all soon. Corey
