On Sunday Jacob redeemed one of his Grandpa Birthday Gift Certificates and took his first canoe trip. He seemed to do pretty well and despite our being fairly close to their boat for the entire trip we could not hear his voice constantly echoing along the banks of the Ausauble. We didn't see any wildlife either but that was too much to hope for. Gary said Jacob talked 'just enough' but he is deaf in 1 ear so maybe he was just facing the other way.

Since it was a lovely day Rose, Tom and I tagged along

Rose did not seem bothered about not having her own paddle and spent most of her time leaning dangerously far over the side trying to drink the river water. She says it was fun but she will only participate again of she has a red life jacket with her own whistle on it.
