Reminds me of the line from my wife's home town: "The train from Princeton to Milaca is always late because it stops at Long Siding and Pease."

(pees)

I thought a bit about "don't explain the joke," but figured some there might not know the town name's pronunciation.

If I remember correctly this smb came from the root river near county road 4. I canoed the section between milaca and county road 4 last July on a day trip.

I live on the rum and love history. Granted it's not that old but my town is listed in there

I used to live on the Rum in Andover. It was the greatest spot in the world. Lots of canoe time and fishing. It is a beautiful river if you ever have a chance to paddle it.

BTW. Great paddle not far from the cities. Great fishing and has a lot of sand bars.

I grew up on the Rum and paddled/fished and camped along the banks, still own 20 acres along the river. My first canoe trip was floating down the river from the West Point bridge down to Walbo with my high school friend. Are u looking to sell the book?

Kendra might like this too. She lives on the Run and paddled the whole length of it with her daughter.
