I've been sick with some kind of head cold this weekend and have more or less resigned myself to watching YouTube videos of kayaking trips and expeditions. In the course of watching all of this great educational material, I have been making a list of items I will need for the trip.

I have quite a bit of it and there is quite a bit more I will need to secure somehow but the list of items seems to grow the more I think about it. I believe the task of making a list is going to rapidly turn into the task of editing the list just to keep the amount of gear to a manageable level.
