Reading While Rowing

Reading While Rowing

Submitted by: Downhome
723 Views | 2 Likes

It's Simcoe day in Ontario and Elva and I decided to row out around the point to enjoy the beautiful day on the water. Elva's Dad, Kenny Adams, in Roddickton, has built 125 boats; we call them "punts." They are spread out across the island and into other provinces. Elva's is No. 115. When Elva and I were home in June of this year he had picked materials to build another. Elva and I have been in Ontario since 1968 but we still love the water and enjoy a meal on the water. While Elva rows into the wind, Henry enjoys a fabulous read. The Downhome fills that spot. Thought you might be interested in seeing this photo. After 43 years away from our beloved province of Newfoundland, we still enjoy the call of the east. Majors Henry & Elva Rowsell   Submitted By: NULL
