Canoe/Friday/Brockdale

I don't know if it was anybody on here but last Friday someone launched from Brockdale in a canoe around 4:30. Now if you and your lady friend want to go canoeing on a white capping, 25 mph wind blown lake, that is totally your buisness, but when I heard that "TINY" child screaming bloody murder when you capsized only 50 yards from the ramp, well I watched with let's say "the upmost of concerns" as you had to swim back. I know the child had a life jacket on but come on man, THAT KID DID NOT NEED TO BE OUT THERE. I'm just glad you were not farther out than you were. You can't get a canoe upright, load two full grown people and a child in it in those conditions. I'm glad and you were lucky that nothing BAD happened.

I'll get off now.

I was there and saw it too. Kinda felt bad for the little tyke. He was crying and wasn't very happy after it had tipped over and couldn't have been over 3 maybe 4 years old at best. Water was way to rough to be in a canoe.
