Now I know what canoe is in German!
I've put this in as a testament to the phenomenal processing power of today's cameras and software. The photo was taken in almost total darkness, with a couple of distant street lights providing some illumination. Yet the free software IrfanView has pulled this much information out of the raw file. I like the bright, over the top colours too.

Seven piled in drunk into the canoe and I into the kayak. We got to almost half way across the lake; surrendered to the water and turned back. At the shower, the canoe tipped over emptying the contents into water. I took off my clothes as well and jumped in. That's when she kissed me and we parted ways. As Derek and I stumbled in drunk and wet into the cabin, Erik's girlfriend told us to shut up. We couldn't stop laughing even when she threatened castration. Next morning we woke up without phones or rides. We found out from the owner that the lake was the Mississippi.

Don’t know who the gentleman on the left is, perhaps Chris Risk? Frank Tettemer? My dad in hard hat, and my uncle Phil on the right, Chris Risk on the left.
and of course, like all places, this area sure has changed:

BALDWIN STREET VILLAGE
In contrast to areas like Yorkville or Little Italy, Baldwin Street Village breathes an air of bohemian sophistication. This culturally diverse area has seen Irish, Jewish, Portuguese, Italian and Chinese communities make their homes here. The end result of the area’s rich history is an eclectic mixture of people, cuisines and shops. You’ll find French, Italian, Japanese, Thai, Indian, Chinese, Malaysian, and Vegetarian food. Lunchtime sees a rush of suits from nearby offices, while the afternoon lull gives off a siesta vibe that can be felt along the whole street. When the sun begins to sink, twinkling lights float romantically in the canopies above enhancing the intimacy of the setting. The sound of cutlery clinking on the plates begins again, and the street remains a private, delightful entity all its own.
Itinerary
• Traditional Japanese cuisine at Kon-nichi-wa (31 Baldwin St.) or Fujiyama (49 Baldwin St.), Indian at Jodhpore Club (33 Baldwin St.), or Italian at Café Tuscany (45 Baldwin St.). Or grab a Chinese pastry at the Yung Sing Pastry Shop (22 Baldwin St.), and sit on the bench and ponder what else you’re going to eat.
• Chada Import Gallery (25 Baldwin St.) is crammed with exotica from around the world including jewellery, furniture, clothes and knick-knacks. Music of all kinds including albums (remember those?) are at Around Again (18 Baldwin St.).
• A margarita at Margarita’s (14 Baldwin St.) is a great way to unwind. Finish off your day with an intimate dinner. Classical French can be found at Bodega (30 Baldwin St.) and Café la Gaffe (24 Baldwin St.), or if you have Malaysia on your mind, the Mata Hari Grill (39 Baldwin St.) will take you there.
Yung Sing Pastry was there in the 70s, but not much else.

Mesa is a good canoe dog. She would usually sit or lay in the middle of the canoe, which made it well balanced. Moose, on the other hand, would choose to lay to one side or the other, tilting the canoe (See previous "Family Paddle" photo.)
