TomT -

Strangely enough, it's the person that is credited for taking the picture!  Some pretty tricky camera work there, eh?

Alas, our buddy Stu is sometimes a little lax re: specific requests (ie. "Stu, please ensure Wayne gets credit for any pics used.").

It's the second time that has happened to me in the BWJ... BOTH times involving a pic of me!  Years ago Stu ran an account of my first canoe trip to Woodland Caribou.  There's a pic of me in that one, too... credited, once again, to "me."  That's despite my specific request that my son, Benjamin, get his due recognition.

Truly, DD took some great pics on this trip, including two others which I felt should have been put into the article (& neither was).  One involved the giant turtles that patrolled our campsite on Cirrus Lake.  Another concerned a simple white hat full of gorgeous, freshly-picked blueberries... a pic almost as delicious as our pancakes the next morning!

The past year of canoe tripping was pretty tough on me.  Fellow QJer's DentonDoc &, later, MagicPaddler (during a later storm-wracked trip in September) were both incredibly tolerant & supportive, making it possible for me to have two very enjoyable experiences during a period when most folks were telling me it wasn't going to be possible due to surgery.

Debility related to this "aging" thing can be a real downer if we allow it to be so.  Exercising a little care along the way, I'll at least go down kicking... which I expect to be some years off, yet!
