I like the Ft.Smith area,I would'nt want to live in Ft.Smith again but I like being close.I split my time between my place in Mena and my place in Dayton(Mansfield area,20 minutes south of Ft.Smith). It's an easy drive to all my favorite places from Dayton,whether it's a mid size town,the Mulberry,J...

I say"Whatever floats your boat.",I prefer canoes becuase they are better in every way,thats why I like them.

A lady at Canoe School (yes,Canoe School) asked my why we open boaters do'nt use kayak paddles since it would be easier.I replied"If we wanted it to be easier we would paddle kayaks."

It is so sad when people learn the risks of playing in moving water just before they die,you just have to think about how many lives you(we) have saved through education. Hopefully this will be a learning experience.I would'nt want this to ever happen again.Anywhere. My condolences to the family,to ...

Anyone who can take a photo of Kenny Pearson and me and make us both look good has a special talent
Hope to see you with a paddle in one hand and a camera in the other soon.
Get well soon,Don Lewis

My Outrage still suprises me sometimes(decides it's time for an unexpected swim)but it's a good dry manuverable boat and would have to be my favorite for it's intended use.

I have one in the loft,one in the storage building out back,one in the back yard on the ground and one on the floor in my storage unit.
The best place for a boat is on the water but building a boat rack is high on my to do list.

Just recieved an email that said the privacy of this facebook group had been changed from open to closed.It has over nine hundred followers,I do'nt know why it was closed but I'm sure there was a good reason.
Please keep him, his family and the searchers in your prayers.

The weather forecast for Mena tomorrow shows some clearing,I looked at some of the Tomnod images posted on facebook but it is hard to see a lot of areas.It did suprise me that they were as clear as they were considering the very brief period of sun that day.Hopefuly they can get some better images t...

ON my serial number the last 4 digits are etched in. Like, by hand with a sharp tool. The first 8 are etched by a machine. My last 4 are D808. Hope this helps. I literally had to take a picture with my phone and use the flash to see it. Look closer. Same here but I already had a photo stored in my ...

Wow,that dose'nt look much like my '99 model Buffalo,mine has aluminun square tubing gunnels.I have some delamination but it was a livery boat from Turner Bend. The curing process would explain why my brand new Wenonah Argosy seems to gouge so easily,I did'nt even realize I was damaging the boat unt...

Thanks Duece,that is very useful info. Glad to know who to use for shuttle etc.
