Two young men stand underneath a NFCT sign and talk about the limited chance that anyone would start in New York and come up to “nowhere” Maine. Enter the Rough Water Gypsies at 5pm, June 29, 2011. We beached in Fort Kent and showed these young men otherwise.
Our trip flowed smoothly from Jackman over to the Alligash and down to the Eastern Terminus. Thanks everyone for your continued patronage, it was a hard trip but it was definitely an experience that will be hard to digest and top the future!
More to come after some much deserved celebrations, 4th of July here we come.
Congratulations Men!
I have loosely followed your Odyssey and with each post became further intrigued and interested. But mostly I was incredulous. Your effort, your perseverance and mostly your positive attitude and strength of character is laudable. I am thoroughly impressed. Again, a heart felt Congratulations on an incredible achievment!!
