One woman’s remarkable journey by kayak
We all have dreams for the future, some irrational and some unbelievable. But inevitably something holds us back from turning our wildest dreams into a reality. We allow doubt and fear to creep in, and we never realize our potential to live out our ambitions. While waiting on the embankment too afraid to jump in, our dreams languish. So how do we find the courage to go for it? La Nae Abnet took a leap of faith, left the riverbank, and journeyed to the Gulf of Mexico.
La Nae and her husband traveled by kayak 1600 miles from the source of the Wabash River to the Gulf of Mexico. Paddling Edna (part 2) Into the Sea picks up where her previous book, Paddling Edna (part 1), left off and finishes the story as La Nae and her husband kayak the remaining 971 miles on the lower Mississippi River from just below Cairo, Illinois, to the Gulf of Mexico. An intimate narrative, La Nae relates not only the events and challenges of each day but also her observations, musings, philosophies, and fears. La Nae eagerly embraces the unexpected and is always on the lookout for truly remarkable experiences.
The perfect read for any outdoor enthusiast, Abnet’s story demonstrates how ordinary people can accomplish the extraordinary; and her outlook is an inspiration to adventure seekers of all ages.
लेखक के बारे में
La Nae Abnet has cycled the Appalachian Mountains, kayaked in the Arctic, train hopped through the interior Canadian wilderness, paddled the big waters of Lake Huron, and canoed across the alligator-infested Okefenokee Swamp. She is also the first woman to kayak the 1600-mile source-to-sea journey from the headwaters of the Wabash River to the Gulf of Mexico. Paddling Edna (Part 1) follows the first half of this adventure. An avid gardener, she lives a minimalist lifestyle with her husband, John, on a thirty-two-acre wildlife habitat property outside Geneva, Indiana, with their dog, Olive, and their cat, Ed.
