My canoes name is Barbra. I have many hopes and dreams for my canoe once I launch it. I hope Barbra will someday reach France by way of Hudson Bay. When I launch barbra into the Red River from Fargo I hope she will enjoy a nice cruise in the river on a warm sunny day and see catfish and eagles in May of 2024. Along the way to Grand Forks I hope my canoe sees hawks and beavers. Later on as it passes by Clay County I hope it gets the chance to see walleye bears owls and sugar beets. Six months later barbra will go past Trail County and see hawks northern pikes and oak trees. Then within six more weeks I hope it reaches Winnipeg and then lake Winnipeg and sees a forest full of flowers caribou and willows. In the fall I hope it goes by a forest of pretty trees and leaves falling everywhere. Eventually I hope it will come across bison as it crosses Hudson Bay. Eventually I hope barbra will reach France
