Worlds Longest Mineral Bath

The story is told of one silly fellow
high on a mixture of drugs
who climbed into the hot pool at Crony Cove
in all his duds.

It was winter and when he stumbled out his wet clothing froze.
Not thinking clearly and in a panic,
he stripped and went back in.

When help finally reached him thirty-seven days had passed,
 moss was sprouting from his skin and He was white as ash.

By being the survivor of "Worlds Longest Mineral Bath" 
he'd learned a very shallow lesson
but not very fast.

Paddling A Canoe

Paddling a canoe is something everyone should learn to do.
It teaches balance, harmony and grace.
Paddling a canoe helps you learn to set a proper pace.
It is an art to glide on water.
Its a spiritual journey and a silent ride.
It a bit of ancient pride.

Its a wonder to travel by canoe.
I hope that you will have the chance to paddle too!

Rope

Twisted or braided rope is most interesting,
an ancient and useful tool.

With rope a life can be taken or saved.
With Rope a package is made.
With rope, a ship can cross the seal by harnessing the wind.
Cattle can be  herded and crowds entertained.
Mountains can be scaled.

But rope alone is not not enough. You must learn to turn a careless tangle
into a proper knot.
