I would really love to join you on one of your morning paddles. It always looks so peaceful.

It is, with just me and the occasional early morning fisherman or crabber out there, though many of the places I go are within earshot of highways (yet far enough away to be able to tune out the traffic noise). I'm not an early morning person by nature but as it's the only time I have available to go I make the best of it. And it is the most pleasant part of the day in a place that is hot and humid with stormy afternoons this time of year. This morning was almost perfect - when the sun came up it was just cloudy enough to keep the temp down until I was done; literally five minutes into the drive back home the sun came out full force. I hate getting up at 4 A.M. to do this but afterward I'm always glad I did. It's done wonders in helping ease my back troubles, too, a completely unexpected benefit.

I am not a morning person either. Once a year though I try hard to book myself a canoe trip into one of the local parks or reserves if I can. Every morning I force myself up to paddle the lake while it's still calm out. Some of my favourite moments bar none.

Though most of my canoe time has been on Ontario lakes, I have occasionally had the opportunity to travel down a winding marsh river and I have always loved it.
