I'm in Moose Lake, MN. I'm off the farm and about to start a long awaited canoe trip. WOHOOOO!!!
I'll be plying some of the same waters as the historic Voyageurs. If you read the article, note the section titled "Daily Life" and see how important pipe smoking was to these men.

They used it to measure time, replace food, and offer some comfort to a very hard life.
I'm not planning on working that hard.... :rofl:
I brought a big variety of blends in sandwich baggies. I'll watch sunsets, sunrises, loons and moose, campfires and starry nights with a pipe.
I wish my life could be like this every day.
I may check in later in the week, but if not I'll post up some pics on my return.
