    Have you ever thought you could easily do something that turned out to be far more difficult than…read moreyou expected. Ever attempt to do something in a group and you wind up being the ONLY one who can't get it right? Well, I have never lived in that world! I've never even visited the land of 'NoCanDo', but today I got a first class ticket. THE SCENE My family and I have been looking forward to our New England visit for months, and NUMBER ONE on our must do list was kayaking with Brian S. Seriously, how hard can it be? Well, let me just say that dagnabbit yak kicked my arse so bad even my children were making fun of me. After a few minutes of basic instructions they were off and yaking like pro's. Even worse, my wife (who didn't want to do it in the first place, but was being a good sport) jumped on and had no problems. But me... not so much. It was an epic fail. EXCUSES, EXCUSES I'm telling you, that kayak was against me! Damn thing must have been rigged because I've never sucked so bad at anything in all my life. Brian said a man's center of gravity is higher than a woman's or a child, so it was natural that I would have the most difficult time. But of my 4 or 5 attempts (I lost count), each ended with a face plant in the water as my wife hysterically laughed from the shore and continually snapped pics of me sinking like the titanic! I was doing okay on my third attempt until my kids said they spotted a jelly fish and I just could not focus on anything but the water around me. Bad move. Most of my time today felt like I was in a rap video, because my favorite position seemed to be "Face down, butt up!" Yes, it's true... I TOTALLY SUCK at kayaking, but Narragansett Bay had something to do with it. I kept loosing focus due to the beauty of the bay views. Yeah, that's it, it was the Bay views and those dang winds! The water current didn't help either. I was so horribly bad Brian offered to take me to a public pool where maybe I could yak on calm waters. Can you imagine the shame of sitting in the middle of a pool with little children wondering what I'm doing... and why I can't seem to stay upright? LOL FINAL THOUGHTS In this episode of man verses yak, the yak won. But, I will be back. Why? Because I can't let my wife continue to wake up from her sleep laughing at the expression on my face as I was "going down" as she enthusiastically likes to put it. She needs her sleep and I need to get this Band-Aid off my ego. Until then Longmeadow @ Narragansett Bay, I have you in my sights. PS Local news reports say the fishing is so good here that some guy on a kayak kept trying to catch fish with his face. Wonder who that could've been? If you need further details, please feel free to ask my wife if you happen to see her. She will be more than happy to recap the entire experience! GRRRRR
