On Monday we made use of the beautiful weather provided for us for Labor Day. We hadn’t made much use of the canoe since moving (make that no use), so we thought it was time to explore the Crow River. It also happened to be Henry’s very first canoe trip.
We settled on an 8 mile stretch of the Crow River starting in Rockford and floating northeast to Hanover. We were blessed to see many forms of wildlife, such as eagles, herons, turtles, and fish. The boys did very well and within two hours we were at our destination. Enjoy the photos from the trip:
