Awesome, Awesome report. The Miramichi holds a special place with me as it does with many others who has experienced it. If I see a picture, map or story regarding the Miramichi, I am drawn in; I study it and seek some sore of deeper meaning. Perhaps it is the incredible times I had or maybe...

Enjoy your trip to Florida. I suspect fighting alligators will be no harder than dealing with the ice.

Enjoy your trip. If you don't mind me asking where ya headed?

O ok. Do you have video, pictures or blog regarding this trip. I did a fair amount of time from deer dale up. From Deersdale to Hayville or Doaktown is still on my bucket list.

Did you ever make the Miramichi trip?

Man people like to be social especially with like minded people. This topic is more a social gathering of like minded people. There are many topics on this great forum that has nothing but canoe trips which I am sure you will enjoy. I enjoy them as well.

East coast Canada where I am at, the winter is seldom more than -15 c. But most times it is damp. If it is dry -15 it a nice day. When it is damp, -5 will chill you to the bone.

Today’s blizzard & a hack for unclogging a snow blower. The harbour in front of our homestead is ice free at the moment but I won’t be out canoeing today. An afternoon blizzard with 20cm (8 inches) of white gold falling before changing to rain is forecasted. The roads will not be safe so I...

Good morning topic we can discuss your weather, your paddling plans, and your plans for the day.

I lived in NewBrunswick for 35 years. Fished and canoed various rivers but mostly the Miramichi which I have some writings of. It's a beautiful province with lots of long rivers that you could take weeks to run it's entirety. I like your blog.

Short days and cold nights of winter can be unproductive. Time managing my homestead tasks is required if I hope to be canoe tripping in early spring.

You are not guaranteed a healthy retirement especially if you kill yourself trying to get there. Therefore I agree.... it's important to find some time to paddle your way to a good life now.

The culture shock of a slower pace life take awhile to get use to, but once you do, you will become comfortably lazy like me. jk. Enjoy your retirement. Happy paddling.

Nicely put.
