We were on an extended canoe trip through the backwaters of the huge La Verendrye Provincial park in Quebec. After the third day we never saw another human until we reached the ranger station and take-out ramp three weeks later. We discovered that while we were away President Richard Nixon resigned. We missed the celebration...
