Sucks man. Make the move! You're right into kayaking right? I really really want ti get into it. Open Water (touring I think, or a sea kayak???). I guess I'll use it mostly in the sea, but I want to explore rivers too (no rapids lol).Yeah, almost none and I don't know why. I was in vegas a couple weeks ago and did 30 odd miles of paddling, completely pain free. I usually can't write for a day or two after a big day in a kayak around here. I stopped racking my power cleans and switched to higg pulls because my wrists wouldn't hold up. My mom is way worse off than I am and she finds a huge difference in the dry too.
It's frustrating at times but fuck it, not a lot I can do about it except look for work in that area.

Any advice? Either on purchasing a kayak or general tips for starting out?
I really can't wait
Does it have to be the desert or is it a drier climate in general? You could move somewhere like Colorado where there's veryblittle humidity since it's such high elevation (there is actual deserts there too) and there is tons of great kayaking there.
I used to kayak and raft quite a bit when I was back in New Mexico. There are lots of awesome creeks and canyons to paddle. One of my favorites was to get dropped off on the rio grand like 40 miles north of Albuquerque and just cruise down the river. Nothing technical but it would take 6-7 hours and we would drink beer and see lots of wildlife and just get picked up at a trailhead.
I also used to do some sea kayaking. In fact, back in the day I worked for Nols and we would do lots of stuff in Baja for weeks on end during the summers.
Driving in Vegas is pretty easy, most of California too.
On the few occasions I've driven in the States, I've not minded it too much. So, are you officially wed now Nurse?
Congrats Knucks.
No one on the island has a fucking clue so no etiquette or flow here. Whoever most recently got back from Fort McMurray and has the shiniest truck has right of way.
Montreal driving can be pretty crazy if you're not used to it and/or a timid driver.
Other than that, you just have to go with it and not try to fight it.
