Canoe Trip on River

I've lost track of what day it is. imagine that. 
One of my personal most memorable days on
this trip so far was the day we hired canoes and
floated down the river together.  It took a couple
hours.  We did more floating laughing wine-ing and cheese-ing than we did paddling.  It was great!
The river was really clean and clear, and the
scenery was fantastic.  As you can see, we could
not have asked for better weather.

 It was obvious Newton had spent many a day on a river.  He did great effortlessly manuvering the apparatus.  I have to admit I was proud of him.  He didn't exactly fit into that little seat in the back.  :)
He pretty much looked like a bear on a rollerskate in that canoe.


Speaking of bears on a rollerskate ?


And now for our next act...    The people in the front of the boats had the coolers, and the people in the backs had empty glasses, so we had to get creative.  "Could ya please pass the jelly?"          We pulled up on a beachy area about halfway through our trip, and had a really fun lunch.  Fresh baked baguettes, 5 kinds of cheese, 3 types of Foie Gras, and of course, you know the rest of the story...Wine...nice, light, fruity, yippee.  Jody has pictures of the picnic and when she sits down long enough to check email we'll have her send me a couple of those so I can add them to this page.  You'll have to check here again later.
