People we meet....

Special thanks goes out to Gary Davison of world record muskie fame (he's the brother and was driving the boat) http://www.driftertackle.com/news/11_06.php who drove us with our equipment from the Marina to the Voyageur Inn. As well, thanks to Natalie who offered backup portage assistance. Thanks Dave Burns and Ivan Ryman for helping with the NB Portage.
