Still at Burton Island

Team Bren enjoying the most delicious pike!

Cook--rest of the team

Fillet--part of the team

We finally have a happy camper (boater).  We weren't sure that Bren would come on the boat again since he did not have good luck catching much of anything.  He says it was worth the wait!

Six pound, 31" Pike!

Team Bren--trolling with the dinghy they finally caught a big one.

Another view of the Crown Point Bridge under construction

A couple of years ago the bridge that spanned this point was blown up.  Ferries now take cars across the gap and they are building this bridge across Crown Point at the lower end of Lake Champlain

This machine is used to cut and gather the weeds growing under water and then they off load the weeds to trucks along the shore

Kayakers along the way

Mansion at Whitehall--end of the canal.  We will be in Lake Champlain soon!
