I do need to say thank you to jp.
Even from a far he still mentors me.
He got me a great book a while back about canoeing and adventures of a paddler and his family.

Jessica and myself did the grand river the 19th.
I was getting my butt handed to me for the first 3 miles by the extreme wind.

Then I remembered a chapter in the book.
Emptied a dry bad, (30 liter) filled it all the way up with water.
Attached to the front of the canoe. The last 5 miles were pretty easy as I had very little trouble after that.

Thanks again JP!!!!
