In this photo of the Farmington River in Collinsville you can just see the Canoe Store coming into the left edge of the frame. Sweetheart Mountain is in the background. (Yes, that's what we call a mountain around here :o ).

This scene, BTW, is what Stoneylonesome sees from his house. :cool: ;) :) :)

Nice shots Jim; Yesterday I saw some people kayaking in the T'ville gorge so I guess winter doesn't slow some of them down. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: Have to walk a little to get that view but pretty close. :lol: :lol:

You have to watch what we call a mountain , the people out west laugh at us. :o :o

It's quite a different scene in the summer. The river is teeming with kayakers and the Canoe Store is booming. There is also the occasional water skier stirring things up. :evil:
