I'm not quite sure what you mean - but yes, I may actually buy that boat, it seems to surf all by itself...
Re tomorrow - I'm still not sure what the plan is, but would suggest the following: Meet at 10:30 AM at Eagleson (as you had suggested) to see who wants to carpool, and than meet at noon at the take out and at 12:30 at the put in. Would that make sense???

I'll meet at WT takeout at noon then.  Dani - you were on Garb!  Just buy it already!

Sounds like it's on. I'm heading up with Dani so I'm not sure if we need another vehicle. Perhaps we can meet at Eagleson and see. I'm headed out for the evening in an hour or so, so I'll have to catch up on decisions made later.

Yes, I would love to carpool with you, but I may have to stop at Trailhead in the morning to rent my magic surfmachine once more. Should not take more than 10 minutes.

Who is up for meeting at the wilderness tours take out at 12 noon? I will go if there are enough people. I don't really care if I stay over at this point but I guess we need a place to start. Dani do you want to carpool with me?

OK - Late start tomorrow sounds good - how about the standard carpool from OC Transpo at 10:30?  That puts us on the river at around 12:30.   I'm leaning towards staying overnight but not sure yet...

Bill, what do you have in mind? I could maybe be fine with paddling just the day on Saturday. I have a lot to do at home...

Liz and Mike, If I don't make any other plans, I may end up on the Ottawa to do some park and play. I would also probably leave later on Saturday, go to Babyface, camp at RiverRun, do a morning session on Sunday morning and leave around 11h30. I have to be back in town at a decent hour on Sunday.

I'm always up for the Ottawa it being a 15minute drive an all but I'd do the lower Rouge again. There's the lower Mad too about the same drive for you Ottawa folk as the Rouge is for me.

I'm pretty much game for any river though especially a new one.

I would be interested in paddling the Ottawa this wkend and would be staying at River Run if a paddle is confirmed.

Bill,  the Upper Mississippi on Sat?

I checked the gauge for the Upper Mississippi; not enough water, it's less than half the flow we had in mid-June.
