Canoeing
Canoeing Canoeing written March 7th, 2021 I have spent the last few days canoeing the Mackenzie River making the journey in a with maps and words. As I read it takes back to canoeing in my youth the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness along the northern border of Minnesota. I can feel the paddle pulling through the water and hear the loons crying at night. The land around almost untouched since Huron, Chippewa, Cree Dakota and Ojibwa eyes were the ones that had ever seen it. Now I in thought and memory the clear cold waters of the lakes the portages through forested hills taking me from one gem of a lake and a memory to the next. |

Thank you to my pastors in high school and college, who were brave enough to lead a youth who had hardly seen a river or lake on these canoe trips that I still remember today.

I will be happy when the ice goes out on the lake I live on in Northern Minnesota. Can't wait to get my paddle back in the water !
