I was reading about your seat/backband discomfort. Find a piece of 1/2" closed cell foam, trim it so that it fits as one piece to insulate your back and seat. It will stop the back band pinch from happening and add a wee bit of extra comfort for your backside. Just an idea I thought of while reading your commentary. Hope things continue to go well with the trip. Robert N Pruden Hey, Bryan.

I'll have to combine that with "The old man pulling radishes points the way with a radish." Maybe, "The kayaker paddling forward paddles forward." That’s a great saying.

I think there's a Taoist saying, "It's not the 1000-mile journey that wears you down, it's the pebble in your shoe."
