Howdy. I have seen pictures of the North shore of Lake Superior. Very nice. When I was young I read a book called Paddle-To-The-Sea. I think it started up that way. One of my favourite books. It was also a National Film Board film. We read the book in grade 1 or 2 when we were learning about the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence Seaway. Cheers.
