July 31 2019 Day 21
This is a image of the Miskwaa Ziibi river approx. 1500 yards south of my location looking north and as you can tell no obvious water , however you do hear it gurgling under the rocks and that's were the lil canoes are working their way through , again, many will just get stuck and will have to wait all summer and winter before they will continue their adventure.
I did go for a walk down the river today and I did manage to find one , as for the number that is unknown , I just left it there and as you can see its high and dry.
Here we have Wayne releasing #40 and Aycan sending #35 on its way

July 30 2019 Day 20
Well I am excited to announce that the "lil red canoe project" has now started reaching other countries around the world .
I am very happy more and more people are volunteering to release lil canoes and taking part in my project , everyone has their own reasons.
As I had mentioned in another post my goal is 999 lil red canoes and at least 1 per day will be sent down the river and yes even in the winter for the river never completely freezes over.
Image above from Left to Right is Anna who was thrilled to release canoe #28 , Micheal standing supporting her had released canoe #13 a few days prior and Hart releasing canoe #32 to begin their adventures down the Miskwaa Ziibi river a 2 km journey to Little Bald Lake located in the beautiful scenic Kawartha Lakes

July 29 2019 Day 19
Well folks today is the 19th day since the first lil red canoe was released to begin its own adventure down the Miskwaa Ziibi river to wherever.
This project is a lot of fun for me and the project is growing daily , whether it is this format or social media.
The project is strictly voluntary with no cost or obligation,and the lil red canoes will not be for sale,
I respect everybody's privacy therefore images of your identity is not required for the blog , however a first name and hand image is required and logged with a number.
I have set myself a high goal of 999 or until I cannot make them anymore.
I thought it would be fun to have a photo shoot of lil red canoe #29 prior to it's release
I hope you are enjoying my blog and watch for future posts.

July 28 2019 Day 18
Well folks I am in my 17th day of launching the lil red canoe project and I am really enjoying the process and direction it is going.
It is now beginning to be noticed in other countries around the world and gaining momentum via social media , the likes . comments and shares are very much appreciated.
I invite people whom want to be apart of my project , the lil red canoes have no boundaries , just people wishing to release a lil red canoe for whatever the reason .
Image above are Laurie and Janet whom released lil red canoes #23 & #24 at the same time and watched as they floated down the river.
I had received an email from Laurie expressing how wonderful the experience was for both of them.

It has been a few days without much rain and the river is much slower,however this will not stop the project to proceed , the lil canoes will just settle off to the side and wait.
