The Depths

I have taken a break from paddling my kayak around the 52 miles of shoreline at Hillsdale Lake. I usually paddle about 1-2 hours every Monday and am probably about 2/3 of the way through with this project. I have branched out to some other lakes lately. I have paddled Wyandotte County Lake in Kansas City, KS, Clinton Lake just west of Lawrence, KS. (rock chalk Jayhawk!), Olathe Lake in Olathe, KS, and Longview Lake in Kansas City, MO. Earlier this year my wife got me a Humminbird Depth and Fish Finder for my birthday. It is specially designed for kayaks. The screen is worn like a wristwatch and the sensor is on a float. This unit tells the temperature of the water, the contour of the bottom, as well as depth and whether there are any fish. The deepest point I have found at Hillsdale has been 48', Wyandotte County Lake 62', Clinton Lake 48', Olathe Lake 39', and Longview 64'. This is an amazing high tech age we are living in! We are not able to detect the depth of a man's spirituality, though. That is something that is discovered by time and the way a man lives. Eventually, a man's spirituality, or lack of it, will reveal itself. What is in the well will come up in the bucket!
