T minus 2 weeks and counting....

Can't believe we leave in 2 weeks.

Can't believe that this trip is finally happening.

Can't believe it took us 18 years to get here.

We are really doing this.

Last pieces of the big stuff came in this week - tent, chairs and a little take along game to alleviate boredom in the evenings.  We are going to get some little things (example - duct tape cause it fixes everything right?) this weekend and take a nice little 2.5km hike with packs up Nose Hill.  After all the first portage is 2.4km and it'll be a good test.  Got out the map this week and started mapping out what campsites we will be aiming for each night.  Discussed camp duties and how far we plan to paddle each day.

Now the excitement is starting to build.  How are we going to get through 2 weeks before we go?!?!?!?

So with the blog the intent is that I will write in a journal I bought for the purpose of this trip each night.  Since we figure we will be home a tad early, we plan on uploading either the pages here or typing it out.  Probably spacing them out over a period of days instead of all at once.  Also the intent is to insert pictures with commentary.

So for those that are reading now, there will be at least a week and a half delay starting Sept 1.

Thanks again for following us on this newest adventure!
