We celebrated Memorial Day by renting a canoe and paddling into Milford to watch the parade. We originally intended on taking our kayak out on the water but it sprung a leak as we were inflating it. And the hole is on the seam and you know how hard that is to repair! So we did the next best thing and rented a canoe. We packed "fishing poles", which were dowels with plastic army men tied to strings, for the kids. It gave them something to do while we paddled. We docked at Central Park and enjoyed the parade and a little play time then headed back on the water. It was a great morning and it gave us time to talk to the kids about the meaning of the day.
