1975 Into Marcel to get ice, fishing license and souvenirs. Steve patched his canoe and we went fishing. Paddled out to a grass island and I caught a perch. Moved to another spot where we got 20 sunfish. After supper Gail and I went out for a cruise in the canoe. Saw two loons and offspring and a beaver and its lodge.
