What a fun race with 82 teams starting! Our son Michael “Buzzy” and partner Nick D’Amour, canoe #43, finished 16th. Yea!!! Son-in-law Colin Hunter in canoe #22 finished 13th! We are so very proud of both. Also congrats to neighbor Tim finishing 5th and to canoe #74, a Canadian team that stayed with us, (did not speak English, and it was their first race), finished 47th. I love following all night, cheering for the teams, having coffee on the Richards porch, setting by the fire in Luzerne looking at the stars and the finish line in Oscoda. Michael and Colin both have great feeders, which are so very important to getting them thru the night! I helped for years, but now that I have given it to the younger ones, I love not worry if they have the right drink, and was it peanut butter or chicken Michael wanted! I look forward to next year!!!
