A new year is now upon us.

While I had hoped to hit 100 kayaking / canoe trips in 2009, I only made it to 88 - of which about 2 were with the canoe and the rest were kayak trips broken down as follows: 10 were offshore, 4 were tandem touring, 10 were river trips, and the rest were a combination of river clean-up, wildlife monitoring and rescue work...

This is still a respectabe amount of kayaking, which I hope to improve on in 2010.

But one thing I need to do involves me: I need to do both physical and mental work on myself if I am to continue making all these tris on the water. This is a good thing, working on one's self always yeilds positive results.

I plan on doing more hiking and bicycle riding - both street and off road - in addition to my kayaking - whic shal provide the absolute best workout one could ever ask for.

The other day I purchased a Spirit 4.3 Dimension Duo. Unfortunately, they are no longer being made, and I got real lucky in that Connecticut Outdoors up in Oakville had one that was in dire need of a good home. So, come spring time - it shall arrive. I am also still exploring the perfect sea tandem expedition kayak and have it down to 2 choices: The AIRE Sea Tiger- which would be a new boat and a used Tsunami X-2 Starship, which is currently out on the west coast in the care of my friend Micco.

So, all in all an exciting positive year lies ahead.

I am hopfull that by leading by example that I can introduce others to caring for the ecology becuse nature is the only thing, without nature - we are nothing.

For the Air, Trees, Water, and Animals....

Give-Love-Each-Day,

Big George aka Earth

Once a behaviour is chosen, choose air jordan 10 a reward - Rewards need to be things that air jordan 9 your child will enjoy. Every parent should be able to easily comprise a list of things that their jordans on sale kids enjoy. Examples may include, jordans 7 jordan Defining Moments Package an extra bedtime story or allowing jordan 21 your kids to stay up an extra hour, or jordan retro 5 allowing them to eat a favourite snack. air jordan fusions 5 (Not a good idea to reward teeth brushing jordan retro 11 with sweet treats!) If air jordan 2 your children are older, you may see better results if you reward them with points that can be converted to cash once a specified threshold is reached. For example, 1 point for brushing their teeth for 2 minutes or 10 points for putting their toys away before being asked. Once a hundred points have been accumulated, exchange it for a dollar. Making a behaviour chart together with your kids is a good idea. That way you can talk about behaviours and rewards and possibly raise your kids interest levels. By making them aware of all of the details, they will be more likely to make an effort.
