I've been kayaking for almost 35 years—eep! In all that time, I've usually dragged supportive friends onto the water with me. Until recently, kayaking was something tolerated by people who love me.

When I went on my big kayaking trip last month, it was the most I had kayaked in one shot. I had never done such a big paddling trip and I was intimidated. What if I was the slowest? What if I couldn't keep up? What if I hated it?

My "What If" list was pretty long.
