May Day Canoe Enthusiasts
Paddlin’ to Madeline became a chilly reality on Sunday, May 1st, May Day. Merry-makers and well-wishers warmed the cockles of Mr. Mohan’s heart with food and warm drink, stories and good advice. Never did a voyage have such a genial beginning. All too soon it was time to hop into the newly christened “Elizabeth Pelagie” and begin the journey to La Pointe, Wisconsin.

Keep your paddle in the water.
