At Paddler Press, we are outdoors people and our site pages are named accordingly to canoe trip lingo. The Put In is where the trip begins. The Trip Log is a reminder of where we’ve been, the details of The Journey. The Portage is where we get out of our boats, stretch our legs, and carry our junk to the next put in. The Campfire is where we drink coffee, tell stories (for the umpteenth time), laugh, and many times, just sit and reflect.
All We Remember is the newest chapbook by Paddler Press EIC, Deryck Robertson, published by Alien Buddha Press. This collection of 33 poems is available at Watson & Lou on Water Street in Peterborough, Amazon, or by contacting us at Paddler Press.
