everytime my trip group gets together we discuss our plans for the next year.

now that we own enough canoes and have a method of transport for them (a crazy roof rack i built to hold 2) and settled on a trip size of 4 (at least for the past few years), all the hard stuff is done. everyone rides in my SUV with the 2 canoes on top, all the gear fits inside, including 4 adult males comfortably.

when you have more people, that means more transport vehicles, more canoes and possibly a trailer, it becomes more difficult.

i live right in the middle of the state and between all the guys that go on the trip. i have a big yard/driveway for parking and have access to a 24/7 walmart, a fleet farm and a gander mountain. those last minute impulse buys are some of the best ideas!!

"planning" for the most recent trips has been deciding how much fishing tackle to take
