Day 6 of 6
Friday, June 10, 2011 - Finish drive and Hang Canoe.
Driving through the night until about 1:00 am, then I stopped at a rest area south of Rockford for a nap. It turned out to be 4 hours. Can you guess what time I woke up? Yes, 5:00 am! The rest of the drive was simple after a check of tie downs and foam blocks. I did need one tie tightened and 2 blocks adjusted. Got home and had one more thing to do. I installed wall-mounted brackets for hanging my canoe.
Really pretty simple, and now my canoe can be cozy and hibernate the early summer until my August trip to Fourtown and a route TBD!
