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.

Anchorage Button Bay on Lake Champlain


44 10.632N
73 29.789W


First swim in Lake Champlain


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!


Fisherman along the canal.
