Joy is a great teacher, but so is dispair. Wonder is a great teacher, but so is confusion. Hope is a great teacher, but so is disillusionment. And life is a great teacher, but so is death. To deny yourself any of those in any aspect is not experiencing life totally.

My rock, your rock, our rock. Rock Island (that's what we called it)Shell Lake, Aug 2012. This was taken about an hour after the two newbies on the left dumped their canoe. That's why she is wearing the rain pants.

that guy on the left kind of looks like the founder of Wenonah Canoes. What's his name???? Mike something?

What I like about these photos is that nearly every person in a posed photo of a group is smiling. That is a strong statement about where all of these pictures are. Where else do you see photos from a specific area where everyone is smiling? It's not an event, it's a place. Everyone is happy, enjoying themselves and are smiling.
As I thought of an answer to my question about where else can one go to see this, I thought Disney? No, not even Disney. Besides places like the bdub, I think it would be very few places.

Nope, sorry. Just a buddy of mine - a Minnesota handyman.
Top-water smallies are a slice of heaven.
