51505 Speaking
of boats and bold voyagers. Meet Mr. Julian Wedgood from the United
Kingdom. |
|
|
Mr.
Wedgood launched his motorized canoe in the
Clark
Canyon Reservoir near
Dillon, Montana. |
|
|
He had to fight barbwire, spring snow
storms, a capsized boat and high water. |
|
|
Can you guess what his final destination
is? We thought he was headed for the Jim Kipp bridge, a hundred and
forty miles downstream. |
|
We were a
little short. Mr. Wedgood's
final destination is St. Louis, Missouri! |
|
|
We tried twice, to jump in his canoe but
there just wasn't enough room for all of the people and equipment. |
|
|
Send him and e-mail and ask him about
his Montana adventure. |
