FINALLY we got the boats on the water! Yesterday we went for a short paddle along the Magog River which empties into Lake Magog. It was a beautiful day, which made for quite a busy waterway, but we did manage to find a quiet little canal that meandered around a tiny island. It was a nice way to spend the afternoon and a good refresher after a long time away from our boats.

When we moved into our new home, we didn't have room for our long touring kayaks so they went into storage along with the other things we weren't quite ready to part with.  Julie is a very astute marketplace shopper and was able to find some very nice, lightly used Necky kayaks in Kelowna that were 10 feet long.  We built some racks in the underbelly storage of the trailer and they slide in nicely overtop of the rest of the items in cargo.  We also were able to find a rack that mounts on the receiver hitch on Toothless to transport them around.  Although some people think that it's a bit of overkill to use a semi to transport two kayaks . . .
