I had wanted to canoe down the Grand River since the first day I saw a map of KW (Kitchener-Waterloo (they're basically the same city)). Unfortunately it got put off until my time was definitely coming to a close in Waterloo. I phoned some friends, got a canoe, and cajoled Jameson into accompanying my on this most excellent of adventures. After all, what could go wrong canoeing down a strange river, flowing much faster than normal from all the precipication, while its snowing, to an unknown location, as the sun is rapidly setting? You're right, nothing at all : )

It was quite a fun trip involving very fast water, toques, a funny Czechoslovakian taxi driver, an empty airport waiting area, and a very steep hill we had to push a canoe up in the dark (we actually ended up sliding down backwards several times with that canoeing hurtling after us).

Canoeing on the lake of Albano

I was actually taking a photo of a rooster stepping around... but the canoe is nice too ;)

There are only rats and turtles in the river, no crocodiles.

One of my favorite shots taken at my favorite lake in Muskoka. I love the depth of field in this shot.

Streamlining the camp gear we packed up in a canoe and paddled our way over to Little Square Pond near the Saranac Lake area. Finding a campsite only accessible by water, we had a campsite completely off to ourselves.

We paddled from Heart's Desire beach in Point Reyes over to a secluded beach for a picnic. This was Henry's first canoe adventure.

Aspiring career as hand model over after 4 days canoe camping, but apparently there's life for me as a pack mule! #PortagingIsAPain
