I am in the final stretch - a couple of days to go. I've decided to bring my tent, and not just my tarp. If it means that my portage is that much slower - then so it goes. I have got to remember that I will not be in Toronto, rushing around, running up stairs, moving from meeting room to meeting room.
I can slow down.
Yesterday I rented the solo canoe. It is a Kevlar, solo canoe, and I will pick it up Sunday morning. I believe it is about 43 pounds - that's darned light.
We're having folks over at the house during the week that I'm away to keep Spring company, which I am very happy about.
Can't wait...
Cheers,
Mungo
