After a little head scratching we decided our canoe would make a great table for our Thanksgiving feast. We have many things to be thankful for this year and have had a wonderful day soaking in the silence and reflecting on how lucky we are to be in this very special place. We have also been remembering moments from our last Thanksgiving when we found ourselves canoeing into the night, racing a storm down Chesapeake Bay. We were days away from completing Paddle to DC, a journey of 101 days and 2,000 miles by water from the Boundary Waters to Washington D.C.
We are especially thankful today to be part of such an amazing group of people working tirelessly to protect this Wilderness we love. Thank you @savetheBWCA and all of the donors, supporters, volunteers, and staff who are working so hard to protect the Boundary Waters.

Thank you to our family and friends for tolerating us being gone for so long. For our mothers’ sakes, let’s permanently protect the Boundary Waters watershed from sulfide-ore copper mining this year so Amy and I can spend next Thanksgiving with our family :-) #Thanksgiving #food #wilderness #BoundaryWaters #WildernessYear #savetheBWCA #wenonah
