She did not notice and I felt much calmer than I thought I would. I was wearing shorts and a collard shirt un-tucked. I carried my KelTec PF9 in a Comp-Tec Minotaur MTAC Holster at the 4:00 position. I have found the 4:00 is much more comfortable for me then at 11 or 12.

I still need to do the Wally Walk, if nothing more than to continue the tradition. But I am starting to feel comfortable about carrying!

Thanks to everyone on this great forum that continues to offer such great advice. :tiphat:
Another paddler huh, yaks or canoes?
Both canoes and kayaks. A 22' sea kayak that is super fast and a 1950 Old Town wood/canvas canoe that was given to me by my cousin.
