It's finally here..

(I honestly think I will be able to post this year and get this blog off the ground)

#thepurplecanoe has awoken from it's winter slumber and the first order of business is to give it a nice wash.

It was a beautiful sunny day and and a good scrubbing was in order.  In short order thepurplecanoe was all shiny and showing off it's magnificent "purpleness"

Here she is with her camping mate in the background.

Happy Canada Day!

What a beautiful Canada Day here in Niagara - sun and heat.  Could only have been better if we had been on the water.  Spent the day packing the trailer though, and listening to the live music drifting down from the park up the street where all the Canada Day celebrations were taking place.
Soon enough The Purple Canoe will take it's maiden paddle on the clear, cool waters of Charleston Lake.  Looking forward to camping time with our 'canoeing partners' Mark and Maureen for some relaxing, fun times around the fire.
