& R E T A W ADVENTURES There is perhaps nothing quite as calming in the entire world as staring out at a body of water. Whether you’re hold- ing your thermos and sipping hot coffee contemplatively on a lakeshore, or you’re pad- dling down a river with a group of friends, water just seems to be the all-healing, all-inspiring answer to our problems. Some of us say, “To hell with the peace and quiet! We want the extreme!” And for those people, we’ve uncovered heart-pumping whitewater rapids and thrilling deep-sea excursions. But this season, we’re chillaxing in our kayaks and cruising down the laid- back bodies in search of a dif- ferent kind of adventure. Join in on the fun this season by grabbing your kayak or canoe and paddling alongside us. These springtime water adven- tures won't chill you to the bone. Of course, there are many areas that offer excellent water condi- tions in all seasons, but it is hard to ignore the excitement of a trip like this. A kayaking or canoeing trip is one of the best activities to plan right now.
