    Kayaking at Stump Beach

    In this footage, I am the person wearing the camera and doing most of the talking and barking orders at Yuan.  It appears that the coping mechanism I've developed to endure the stress of being in difficult kayaking situations is to shout unreasonable and irrational things at my friends.  In this case, I was the one directing us through the chute, and when the water became naturally turbulent, I expected Yuan to help correct the dangerous situation I put us in and which we could do little about.  That being said, we got through unscathed, and I'd just as soon do it again.

    I thank my lucky stars that I am a free man and am able to do things like this.  The world is a beautiful and wondrous place. For those of you who are fortunate enough to cherish your sacred existence on this planet, never forgot about those people and creatures that are suffering as a result of our own devices. 

    You get one shot at life, so don't waste your time.  Your death will be immeasurably more bearable if you do not die in regret; if you know you tried your absolute hardest to fulfill your dreams and to be a good person.

    We also came across a Pacific Sea Nettle jellyfish on this trip; click here for footage.  Also, for an equally entertaining kayaking adventure clip, featuring more of Aaron yelling at his friends, see Yuan, Vince, and Aaron tackle the arch at Goat Rock
