What’s the next best thing to going on a canoe trip? Watching Song of the Paddle by Bill Mason. Another one of his films that like Paddle to the Sea, had a powerful impact on me as a youngster, giving me a taste of how fantastic canoeing might be. And I’m happy to report it was borne out by my subsequent real life experiences.

CanCanoeOdyssey
Don’t know why I’m only learning about this now, as they’re close to reaching their goal.
Group of six paddlers are crossing Canada by canoe. Envious.
Part of why they’re doing it, (besides the sheer coolness of it), is to bring attention to the value of Canada’s waterways and raise awareness for the efforts of the Nature Conservancy of Canada and the Canadian Heritage Rivers System.
