Last year my nephew Ben put my deep-water rescue skills to the test when he flipped his boat in Mississippi Sound off Dauphin Island on the Alabama Gulf Coast. In this photo we have gotten him back in the boat, and I'm holding him steady while he operates the bilge pump.
I am now back at Dauphin Island: my mother and I and my sister's family take a little vacation here each year about this time. I arrived down here late yesterday, so today is my first full day. I hope to do some more paddling with my sister's kids, though it'll be fine with me if we all stay upright.
