Just in Case

Yoho National Park

I couldn't resist chuckling when I discovered this little boat tied up at the Emerald Lake boat rental
dock. They even painted 'Rescue Boat' on it so's not to confuse it with all the other little boats
neatly stored on the dock. Of course this was the only one with a tiny motor--all the rest were
powered by paddles. I'm guessing there mustn't be too much need for this little boat on Emerald Lake
and its fleet of rental canoes and row boats, unlike Okanagan Lake which needs powerful, highspeed
search and rescue boats for all the foolish, and often drunk, boaters that crowd our lake each summer.
Minor adjustments, including a small crop, made in PSCS2.
Comments and feedback always greatly appreciated.
