On Home & Adventure
One at home dreams of adventure, as one on adventure dreams of home.
Finally Facing Forward
After spending approximately 4 months observing old man river from behind, through the meticulous task of rowing, I am finally able to face forward as our expedition is complete. The Gulf of Mexico was a sight for sore eyes. After the climactic 4 days of the voyage we discovered a channel out to the open waters where marshland stretched out into the brackish sea and oil rigs defeated the horizon. Once we set anchor, we as a team plunged into the cool water and the fate of our expedition was achieved. A feeling of solace washed over me in waves of delight as we were towed to the boat ramp. It was time to take our strong, patient and beautiful Annie home to Baton Rouge. Through her travels she tasted the sweetness of the headwaters, the mud throughout the middle, the bitterness of Cancer Alley and the salt of the Gulf of Mexico. Thanks for everything Annie, her captain and crew. To all of our followers, I thank you for the support and interest in our adventure and hope you will stick around for some more images to be posted in the near future. For now, I think I am going to relax. It’s been grand.
The Outlaw
For all the Old Man River Project fans…
As I was surfing the blog pages I noticed the lack of Cliffs presence on the blog. Furthermore, I noticed that Cliffs name did not even appear on the crew menu. So I write this concise post to our fans to help encourage Cliffs involvement on the blog over the course of our last 230 miles from Baton Rouge to the Gulf of Mexico. I want a record breaking amount of comments to show Cliff we all care for the story he has to tell. Thank you alll for your cooperation.
A Gain, Not Loss
And then there were five…
This blog post is a tribute to the two crew members that forfeited their thwarts on Annie to pursue personal adventures down other paths. The melancholy subsided after each departure, as it dawned on me that I have not lost either crew member but rather gained two friends. Friendships that I plan to cherish and honour well past the boundaries of the Mississippi River. I wish you both much success and am anxious to see you down river.
Meet John Ruskey
For the past couple days I have been surrounded by a legendary and highly admirable river rat, John Ruskey, as well as the historical town of Helena filled with character, and also the deeply emotional rhythm of the blues. A style of music that has grown on me immensely. Living from the QUAPAW canoe shop in Helena has been quite rewarding. Sleeping in the presence of artistically hand crafted dugout canoes has been nothing short of inspirational. I look forward to sharing some river time with John down river.

Let’s Play Diagnose Tank
For all who care to know it, I have come down with a flu of some sort. I guess I could approach this blog entry with an interactive touch. For all who care to play, let’s begin.
Symptoms:
- Dry, sore throat
- Runny nose
- Weak, flemmy cough
- Deep, cracky voice
Now given the current symptoms, I would like you to guess that flu. AND list the remedies to my cure.
