My canoes name is Willow. I have many hopes and dreams for my canoe once I launch it. I hope she will someday reach The Seine River in Paris France and see people boating on it. When I launch Willow into the Red River from Fargo in May of 2024 I hope she will enjoy the ride and see many things. I want her to float by a field of corn in Fargo with squirrels trying to eat the corn. My hope is that she will get picked up by a swan that is headed towards Polk County. I want Willow to see and hopefully travel under Weeping Willow trees in Walsh County. Id love it if my canoe would get stuck one winter next to a herd of caribou eating maple trees. I want her to see a bunch of water creatures like bass walleye and carp. I hope Willow will see other animals like otters wolves deer and owls. When Willow floats all the way across the North Atlantic Ocean and makes it to Paris I hope she will continue her journey and keep moving on to new adventures.
