Dusan, hi.  We=E2=80=99d like to get a bit more information about this =
excursion, if you could oblige.  We=E2=80=99ve been canoeing and =
kayaking all our adult lives, but in a leisurely way.  Now, =
we=E2=80=99re in our early 70=E2=80=99s, and our usual paddle (canoe) is =
only 2-3 hours in calm waters.  We haven=E2=80=99t been out yet this =
spring.
This trip sounds lovely, and we=E2=80=99re thinking perhaps we might be =
able to do a part of the day with you.  So, our questions:  =
We=E2=80=99re assuming the portage hike is to Flat Lake.  Is that =
correct?  Are you planning to do that in the morning?
We=E2=80=99d like to take part in that hike.  So, could we join you for =
the paddle to the portage?  Then we could just make our own way back =
afterwards.  Are you planning to circumnavigate Cox=E2=80=99s Lake? =20
If you are planning the hike for after lunch, perhaps we could just put =
in later in the morning and meet you  (although I expect the =
south-westerlies will have picked up by the afternoon).

Thanks in advance for your help.
Jane and Dave Schlosberg
