Eli says he gets in rhythm when he is pad­dling about two miles from shore. There’s less cur­rent out there and it seems to be where he gets his best glide. He said that whales, dol­phins and birds seem to pre­fer trav­el­ing along this watery thor­ough­fare as well. Eli does these pad­dling adven­tures for no other rea­sons than to see a place. No cause, no fanfare-​​he just really loves being out there.

Pad­dling ten miles a day. I love pad­dling, but this is brutal.

A lit­tle old, but…

In 2001, a Power­Book G4 would have set you back $3500. Sup­pose instead that you had pur­chased $3500 in Apple stock instead of the computer…that stock would now be worth about $110,000. Even an orig­i­nal iPod’s worth in AAPL ($399) would be worth almost $12,000 today.
