Five Weeks Post Surgery: Back to Savannah, Recalling Arctic Misadventure and First Expedition Alligator

Arctic canoeing with Dave in my canoe - complete with homemade full cover.

Diving out of the snowy northeast, we were lucky not to encounter any white or icy roads.  Along the way we visited family and friends in my hometown, Waynesboro, Va. and talked with a friend who had the same surgery as I did, but four months earlier.  In Savannah we stayed with long time paddling friends and relived our arctic misadventure from twenty years ago that we call "The Incident."
