RE: I recently got into kayaking and kayak camping.

Not sure if you've ever thought about it, or maybe done it, but kayaking from island to island in the San Juan Islands of Washington and then staying on the various islands over night is a really cool adventure. We're going to go to Washington here in about a month and do some kayaking up there, but 15 years ago my wife and I and another couple did the kayak trip I mentioned and its something that is some really fond memories!

Thats fine, but do you get juiced from them? Like wake up excited to go do them?

Absolutely. I cannot get enough of my hobbies. Sounds dumb, but i really do get excited about getting up to do them. But
