Northern Renewal



We just added a number of jigsaw puzzles from Willow creek Press and this one called 'Northern Renewal' reminded me of a great time spent in Canada with my son Zach in the summer of 2008. Both of us currently live in Florida and decided to make the long trek to the 'Kag' for a week of fishing and relaxation. Kag is short for Lake Kaganagiami located in Ontario, Canada. The Leuenbergers operate a fly-in lodge and outpost camps. We always opt to 'rough it' at the Kag on the American plan, where the crew feeds us twice a day at the main lodge and provides a box lunch for the day of fishing fun. They also clean your fish! The cabins are log construction, utilizing the natural resources around them and the only way to go since you have to fly everything in to the lake. They also have indoor plumbing, yahoo!
This would be our second trip to the Kag, with the first trip in 2004 in which we drove from Fort Wayne, Indiana. Only this time we were going to fly! Zach and I set out from West Palm Beach, Florida KPBI in a Cessna 172RG, which is a four seat single engine aircraft.
