06/28/2010 04:33PM Thanks for the report. I can almost feel that sinking feeling in your gut once you realized you forgot the food. Yikes. |

06/28/2010 03:32PM Afterthoughts: -I REALLY enjoyed this trip. I am very fortunate for my friends. -All evidence indicates the kids enjoyed the trip; it was a nice, little “starter” adventure. Since their happiness (I say) was the primary goal of this trip… I am pleased. -My canoe really floats great and I LOVE it… except when I’m portaging it. ? The future probably doesn’t hold long portages with that canoe. That said, the best canoe is the one you have! -My food packing was spot on; I fussed about quantity when planning, but in the end… I think I nailed it. Very cool. -Fishing net is probably the only superfluous gear; I used all the rest. -Food pail with Gamma Lid ROCKS; it’s an airtight container, it’s a table, it’s a chair. -I’m ready for a longer trip now. -My forgetting the food pail when leaving home proved the value of checklists; now you know why experienced pilots use checklists before every flight. |
