New Canoe
Russian River

Emmy and I thought it would be a breeze to paddle our
new canoe, which we bought from Peter and Emma,
downstream to Nanny and Bobo's house. But the breeze
was anything but easy: strong offshore winds fought
us all along the way, making it a real task to paddle
downstream. We made it in about an hour, and were
received by the Usual Suspects down on the dock.
(This is the very same canoe that was swept away
by spring floods two years ago, and that we spent
a very nice afternoon searching for along this same
stretch of river.
We didn't find it that day, but
someone who had rescued it later responded to flyers
that Peter & Emma posted, and they got it back.)
