First things first, though. There were cows to be milked and calves to take care of and then the farmers were ready to load the canoes on the farm truck and head out. Meanwhile in the farmhouse, the farmer's wife was making breakfast and packing a lunch to take along on the canoe trip. The farmer told us that it would just be a "short" run, probably 2 hours or so........ 4 and 1/2 hours later this farm family didn't think the bridge would ever come in sight to end the trip! Despite the long trip, we really enjoyed seeing God's creation and all of the ducks, geese, and cranes! It was a beautiful day for the farm family to be together!
Ready to go!
Dropping in!
And they're off!
Why should Nathan work on his day off?
See the male goose with his wings fanned out in front of their canoe? He was distracting them away from Mrs. Goose's nest. He was making all kinds of noise. (see video)

Finally at the end!
"But have you ever noticed how sweet and relaxing the sound of water can be? I like to fish, and I like to find a spot where the water is whispering in ripples. I can just lie back and hear it speaking peace and joy and contentment to my heart." Bro. Branham Church Age book cpt. 2

Wow, that is really cool! Looks like lots of fun! :))
Yes it was a lot of fun! I'm glad nobody fell in because the water was cold! This is the earliest that we've ever canoed; it's usually too cold yet at the beginning of April.
God bless
Enjoyed the pictures and video. Glad you all could go canoeing. Love you.
