\"Photo<\/a>

Dear Holy Cow Canoe Company:
Here is a photo or two from my four-day adventure in Bon Echo Park last July while learning paddling skills from the queen of the canoe, Becky Mason.
Ms. Mason was kind enough to teach us a variety of paddling skills while imparting her immense love and respect for the land and water.
I recall it was an incredibly hot the week when we were there, with daytime temperatures in the plus 25-30 degree Celsius range.
That meant that most of the 8 women taking part in the trek took advantage of a dip or two in JoePerry Lake.
My group wanted backcountry adventure away from RV\u2019s and the tent trailers and we got it.
It was thrilling to see Mazinaw Rock, the aboriginal pictographs on the rock wall.
I bought my first canoe last year, an old fiberglass 16-foot clunker but it gets me out on the water and I love it.
Paddling is my passion; it is sensual and touches an emotional side of me.
It is my quiet form of meditation.
Magic happens on the water when a paddle is dipped into a clean, clear northern lake.
I can hardly wait to get out on the water this spring. Go away old man winter and let the young spring chick come around.
Thank you,
Sue Nielsen
Paddler
