    A great retrospective of Canoecopia 2023! I got tired just reading your schedule on Friday. No wonder you’re exhausted. Hope to cross paths somewhere soon, closer to home.

      It was a crazy schedule. Not sure what I was thinking to agree doing it. Good thing I teach - it was similar to a regular day in the classroom lol

    That's awesome! One of these days I'll get down to see Canoecopia but haven't been south of the border since 2022 when our government said I couldn't cross anymore due to covid restrictions. But I guess that scare is over now but I've moved on job wise and don't need to cross anymore although now my love of canoe camping has made me get interested in some events and areas south of the border. So maybe next year?..... We'll see.

    I just found this new to me Canadian hard rock band named Crown Lands. I immediately thought of you and some of the other Canadian UA-camrs that camp on Crown Land. I don't think it is for John Denver loving Kevin, but maybe Tim would like them because they have been influenced by Rush.
    As a Michigander, I am sorry if you didn't enjoy Battle Creek.

      I'd love to but the show hasn't asked me back for a few years now. Not sure what's up with that. It was always one of my best shows to attend.
