From there we had a short portage around a falls and down a marshy stream to Timber-wolf lake. There on a high wind-swept site we made our home for two nights, We shared our point with several friendly deer mice, a solitary beaver and a flock of diving ducks, but the only sign of man was the orange glow of a campfire on the far side of the lake. At night the full moon sent a wide ribbon of flickering silver across the water to our tent, and the waves sloshing on the shore lulled us to sleep, The morning that we left Timberwolf lake it poured. Fortunately we had double- packed everything from food to clothes in plastic so the rain was only an in- convenience and not a disaster. We travelled up the winding narrow beginnings of the Petawawa River. Along this meandering stream we glided a few feet from a blue heron fishing on the bank, and portaged around two small scenic falls. At one point our way was blocked by a newly constructed beaver dam,' , with the water level on the far side much higher than ours. The only way to continue up stream was to roll up our pantlegs and balance precariously on top of the dam as we hauled our canoe over the top. Soon after this we had a warm fire blazing under a protective plastic fly on the shore of Daisy Lake. This lake was unbelievably beautiful. Deep and narrow, crystal clear, it wound itself like a broad river between high rounded hills. The skies clearedcompletelyiover night and we spent two sunny warm days swimming and fishing and exploring. Not even the snuffling sounds from a prowling bear at night could dampen our enjoyment of this perfect place. We were all sad to pack up and leave. Even worse was to hear the blare of a car horn and the harsh clamour of rock music from a radio, as we landed at the dock near the parking lot. Our week "away from it all" was over, Anyone interested in canoeing in the interior of Algonquin can order a canoe route map for $1,00 from 'Park Superintendent, Algonquin Provincial Park, Ministry of Natural resources, Whitney, loaded up our 17 foot canoe with our packs and set off for an unforgettable week in the interior of Algonquin park, The first night we sat by our campfire on a rocky point, and listenedtothe eerie yodel of the loons on the lake -- civilization had been left behind and in its place the quiet sounds and solitude of the forest. The next day we paddled `through several small lakes, carrying our packs and canoe over the con- necting portages. By mid- afternoon we had set up camp among blueberry bushes on a small lake. In the morning we waited for the last wisps of mist to lift off the mirror-like sur- face of the water before setting out again. Everywhere the rocky, tree covered hills were reflected with startling clarity on the water. Our portages that day were the largest on our trip - 2 1/2 kilometers and 3, kilometer but our paddle up beautiful Misty lake was By the Ka une family After a long winding drive in.from Kearney, we finally Revenue and Expenditure 1979 ledge 1978 Sued 1979 Actual Our twins flew into London two days after our return. During the two weeks they were here, we attended the Home Country Folk Festival, toured City Hall, the Art Gallery, Pioneer Village, Fanshawe Lake and Park, Thames Valley Trail and Wonderland Pool in London. On tours to Niagara Falls we also saw Marineland and Gamefarm, and on the trip to Toronto we took in Ontario Place and Eatons' Centre. Social activities included two different day trips to Grand Bend, rollerskating, and a few home parties given by local twins. Weekends here were also free. The evening before they returned,to Thethford Mines, a pot-luck dinner was held at Medway High School with all families invited. Diplomas, pins and decals relating to the exchange, and . certificates of London's birthday were presented to both twins, as well as a few special presentations. A dance followed which proved to be quite a hit.
