Ready to trade in that gently used boat, paddling, or other outdoor gear? Today is your chance to turn your old gear into cash or trade for some “new to you” equipment. Bring your clean items, clearly priced to OKC Kayak beginning at 10 a.m. on March 6th and no later than 7 a.m. on the day of the sale, March 7th. This is a no commission sale (a.k.a. you keep all the proceeds). We will advertise this event around town. If you have a particularly hot item you wish to notify us of, feel free to call us in advance. Don’t miss this one. We assure you that some great bargains will be available this day only. NOTE: Oklahoma City Sales Tax (8.375%) will be charged on all merchandise except boats. All of your unsold gear must be picked up by no later than Tuesday, March 10th or it will be donated to your local, impoverished, paddling proprieto |
Nobody is perfect. We have all heard this line. Luckily, I have a few good friends that like me enough to tell me when I am waivering from the needed path. Kevin Wagner, one of my best friends from San Diego, is one of these folks. One of his biggest pet peeves is when he spends all sorts of volunteer elf hours creating a kick butt website for us, only for me to upload some distorted image or even worse none at all.
The other day after fixing a bunch of screwed up images that I had uploaded, he finally delivered an ultimatum. This directive ordered me to never put out another blog without a photo. In his words, “people don’t give a poop about what I am writing, but they do want to see some pics.” He and lovely wife Jodi, went so far as to send me a new waterproof camera.
Yes, penance is in order, so I am starting small. I just got through downloading some free photo resizing software, and am in the process of resizing some of the many pics that I already have. Enjoy the photos from the Baja party. …. and I really will post some actually great photos from the trip soon too.
Thanks Kevin and Jodi for taking an interest in this Okie kayak kid!
