I would love to join but would want to bring along a novice - would that be ok for you guys? I think pretty much everything is portageable on the Main? He does not have a solid roll yet...

Great! So I guess you'll be happy to apply all your newly acquired rescuing skills.  :)

Martin & I will be there on Sunday, however we will be there early, around 10 am, as I have to drop off my wife at 8.00 am in Carp.
So if it's OK with you guys we will meet you at Babyface when you guys get there. If I could get a ride from somebody at the end of the day then that would be greatly appreciated.
If anyone else wants to get an early start then please let us know & we can setup an early shuttle & then go play for a while. Unfortunately I cannot carpool because of the Carp side trip.

Merci, je sais. J'espere qu'on ne va pas avoir une autre "discussion Martin" ici. ::)
Malheuruesement, je ne suis pas un cougar alors mon invite et deja majeur. :( Alors j'espere qu'en generale, il sera capable d'etre responsable pour lui-meme. :)
Now I'm curious about Christian's legal advice! Hey, glad to be back to North America!
Sorry, just kidding, although not entirely...
Looking forward to see you on the river!

Well, that was just my opinion, I'm not a lawyer. But it was confirmed by Rob Monti, who IS a lawyer...

Hopefully there will be no need to use rescue skills, and hopefully my foot will allow me to paddle this weekend!

D'accord! Looking forward to have some fun!
Richard, I'm still jet-lagged so I'm tempted to join you for an early run - would you want to meet at 10 am at the put-in?
Dani

Would anyone be down just for some park and play?
Title: Re: Main Channel Sunday
Post by: wyszard on September 13, 2012, 05:01:22 PM
sure Dani,
It turns out that Martin will be camping on Saturday and will already be there.
So if you want to make it early I can be at the put-in between 9:45 & 10 am.
Title: Re: Main Channel Sunday
Post by: Dani on September 14, 2012, 06:49:00 AM
Ok, great, so let's aim for 10 am at the put in.
Dani
Title: Re: Main Channel Sunday
Post by: ChristianG on September 14, 2012, 07:57:24 PM
Ok... Original time was 11:30 at the put-in. So who is going at 10:00 and who is going at 11:30? The latter is more civilised, as it's the weekend after all...

I believe the plan is for Mike and I to carpool together in my car and possibly pick up Sandra around Calabogie area. Still waiting on confirmation of all this. But we were supposed to arrive at 11:30 at the take out.

Assuming Mike and Sandra have playboats (correct me if I'm wrong guys), then I have no problems putting four boats on top of my car and sit four people including myself comfortably in the car.

Maybe we need to post rules on Forum etiquette.
The original posting is in the quotes and pretty simple. Why dilute the thread if you want to do something else? ... start your own thread. Mike prefers to sleep in.

BTW .. see you folks at 11:30 at the WT takeout.

Thank you Larry for saying what I wanted to say!  ;-)

Here's the current 11:30 participant list as I see it:

Mike R.
Sandra K.
Daniel D.
Luc L.
Kurt R.
Larrry W.
Christian G.
Robert M.
Dave H.
Liz E.

We will likely see the earlier participants at Babyface (and Richard is looking for a ride home - is that Richard and Martin?).


I will carpool with Luc and we're picking up Sandra at the Calabogie exit. 
Kurt is looking to carpool.  How about meet at Eagleson OC Transpo around
9:45 to organize a nice eco-friendly carpool?

Thank you everyone for the glorious day on the river. The sun shone, the swims were numerous and we prevailed over the cold!!

Seriously, seeing both Dave. H and Larry swim were highlights for me. Not sure which was better, Dave swimming while he rescued another CDBers boat or Larry rolling 5 times after baby face...

The post dinner commentary was pretty hillarious too. I will never look at Snow White in the same way again - thanks Daniel!!

Thanks for all the laughs everyone!!
Sandra

I want to laugh, too - what is the story about Snow White????????
Agree re the swimmers - maybe we are about to metamorphose into a swimming club...

Friends in my office have young children and talk about good film like 'Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs' and we were discussing about a good adult version name' Snow White and the Seven hands' . Better than the stork story and could help Sandra in her d?cision of having a baybe..  maybe the movie still availaible dont know...
Title: Re: Main Channel Sunday
Post by: Dani on September 17, 2012, 12:27:19 PM
Seven hands? How do you Canadians make babies??? Ok, I guess next time I'll have to sit close to Sandra and you in order to learn something about real life...
Dani

Post by: CaroDulu on September 17, 2012, 12:29:45 PM
As we were informed from Daniel, this worked three times for him...and the stork visited each time!!

I also greatly enjoyed all of yesterday's day out with all of you great CDBers!!
Looking forward to the next paddle!!
