Last night when I was walking my dog, two young boys (mid teens?) were carrying a kayak down the street, which seemed suspicious to me, especially at that late hour. As I got closer to them, one of the boys asked me if I wanted to buy a 'canoe'. Assuming it was stolen, I pretended to get angry and said it was my kayak and I was walking around the neighborhood looking for it. My pretend anger and large dog must have been enough persuasion for the boys, because they dropped the kayak and ran off. I carried it back to my place, where it is in safe storage, locked up. If you are missing a kayak, or know some one who is, please email me back with the type of kayak and colour, and I will gladly return it to you. As a side note too, since bike thefts seemed to be pretty high earlier this summer, it might be a good reminder to everyone to check the status of their recreational gear, and remember to try to keep it locked up somehow, if it has to be outside. --Sean
