And she is brave . . . playing with the leeches! LOL Those things creep me out. Hope you have many more fun family trips.

One of my favorite H lines of all time was when we were at Perent Lake for her first trip and she had a leech hanging from her hand and she said "Hey daddy, look, this one REALLY likes me" :)

We love the Lizz area and Cross Bay is on my list of places I want to visit because it seems very similar.

Thank you for the kind words everyone. A lot of people that we know that are not canoe trippers couldn't believe that I was going there alone with her and are amazed at how well she did. I'm definitely a proud dad.

I hope H and I helped make a case for your trip :)

I loved the report...my favorite picture is the UNO cards and the Loon in the tent playing cards, as it had to be a great way to spend time with her dad in the rain!
Thanks for sharing,

That was great! Lucky dad, lucky daughter. The spare descriptive prose of a 7-year-old is really Hemingwayesque!
And she is brave . . . playing with the leeches! LOL Those things creep me out. Hope you have many more fun family trips.

It sounds like some great one-on-one quality time with your daughter, ducks. It seems like it went very well - she seems pretty competent for a 7-year-old.

Neat report!
Glad the first father/daughter trip went well. I trust H didn't lose her eyeballs & was able to finish that whole pancake. :) I think this picture sums up how she felt the trip went & how I rate this report.
Thanks for taking the time to share your story & photos.

Awesome!! I loved every second. And now I am excited for the day when my little L (age 4) can do her own trip reports. :)

Ducks you are a very blessed man. Make sure to kiss and hug your girls tonight and tell them you love them. ~JOE~

Awesome report... love hearing your daughter's perspective on the trip.
My 13 year old was going to write a trip report for our family journey to Long Island last year but she never pulled it off. Then again neither did I :-)
Little H should be an inspiration to us all.
We love the Cross Bay entry point off of the Gunflint but her report makes me anxoius to explore this area as well.
