April A La Framboise

After work yesterday, John and I decided to take a cruise around La Framboise Island. It was a beautiful day for a paddle; the high was 65 degrees and the the wind was calm. We covered 5.75 miles.

The water was almost too low to sneak through the "island channel" but we persevered. We did have to use our hands to help get over a fallen tree and the dike, but we remained in our boats.

Picturesque.
