Tower-Armand
I would like to thank Anne and her team, Armand for towing, Rich and Armand for being the designated canoe movers, and the other participants for a lovely morning on the water. We paddled through mounds of underwater plants which was very interesting (more like gondola-ing with a pole), as well as lots of open water, saw a beautiful sky with some sun and great clouds that did not rain on our parade and I saw an egret. Lunch on the picnic tables and ice cream at the Ice Creamm Shop in Arthur with Audrey ended a great day (we discovered the ice cream because the new Timmy’s had to close because of a water problem).
