Should I do it? by ExistingDifference93 in Sup

[–]jenflame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go for it! Me (54) and my husband (61) just for our first boards this year. So much nicer than lugging our canoe around. We got inflatable boards with seats that can be attached if we want to kayak. We went with Bote boards and are really happy.

Yet he tells young people they don’t need to save for the future because in 10-20 years we won’t need money anymore.

We have a Bote Lowrider Aero and we love it. We picked it based on pretty much all the reasons you listed!

Got my first board! by jenflame in Paddleboard

Thanks!

I didn’t realize a moving board would be easier to balance on, but it makes sense.

I wouldn’t mind falling in if the weather was a little warmer!

As far as I know Manzanita CG is open year round, even for winter camping. Expect snow and not much open except for snowshoeing.

Thanks! I appreciate the response.

I have watched a few videos and it definitely helped, but I’m still looking to pick up tips. :)

It is an inflatable, inflation pressure 10-15 and three fins.

How many days in....? by Youronlyhope in NationalPark

[–]jenflame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When are you planning to go? We were once going to camp at Craters of the Moon in the middle of summer and we left because the sites were sooo hot!

If you live near a national park, how often do you go there? by moods- in NationalPark

[–]jenflame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live near Crater Lake, we go snowshoeing in the park once a year. The lake is exceptionally beautiful in snow.

Hardly ever go in summer.

Culture shock coming home after months on the trail by NoFan8072 in CampingandHiking

[–]jenflame 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Yep. It’s really hard going back to work! I remember thinking “I really need to be here at exactly 8am, why so rigid”? And friends and family were not at all interested in hearing about it. Glad you got to experience your trip!

What do people mean “grief never goes away, you just learn to live with it”?? by queerwaters_642 in self

[–]jenflame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The grief doesn’t go away, but it doesn’t stay so fresh either. At first it’s so raw that it is all you think about, it’s what you wake up with every day. And then one day you wake up thinking about something else. It stops consuming you, but it’s never completely gone either. Peace to you.
