Effects of boredom

Nick here..

So lately I have had really boring days due to the fact all of my friends are at either school or work during the day. So I try to find stuff to do during the day to keep myself active and off the couch. I came up with this awesome/funny idea to take some pics of myself in my new kayak in an irrigation ditch near my dad's house in Eden. Ha my dad and I got a really good kick out of doing it. I did not hesitate to send this photo right away to my buddy Brad Ludden, who is the founder of First Descents and also a pro kayaker. Hopefully he thinks is as funny as I do.
Anyways just thought I would share the laughter (hopefully you all find this funny since I am kayaking in a irrigation ditch).

So how hard was it doing a "flip" in the ditch???? Great pics - you are a "nut"! GM Jennie :)

Great pics. I wonder what the people pulling the trailer thought.

Hi Nick,
The picture I can't wait to see is someone else kayaking in the Eden Irrigation Ditch now that you have pioneered the way. Thanks for sending humor out to all of us who check on you daily. Love, aunt Chris
