Back to the French River

Mr. B and I, along with two students from the school (let's call them H & J), were back to the French River the weekend of September 15th as part of the Duke of Edinburgh program. For their expedition component of the program, the girls had decided to go canoeing for three days.


Although it had been only two weeks ago that Mr. B and I were on this same river system, the scenery was very different as the foliage had already begun to change colour.

It was also colder at night and the fire skills of Mr. B were much appreciated. I don't think a single piece of fallen wood was left unburnt once we had departed the site.

The trip, though memorable in its own right, was taken over the top when Mr. B had to exit the canoe and bare his toes during a simple 'pull-over'. I had to document the occasion despite having to face the wrath of H for the 'from behind' angle of this picture.
