Today Mark, Kaatje and Hailey joined Aiden and his crew in North Rustico for a Deep Sea Fishing Adventure. This excursion was planned because of Kaelyn and Daddy’s love of seafood.

We started Monday to make the long trek to PEI. Our first stop was Herkimer, New York. The KOA there was voted best campground in North America in 2010. You can dig for diamonds in the mine or brave the rapids on the West Canada Creek. Being the water loving family that we are, we rushed out to buy inflatable tubes and couldn’t wait to tackle the creek. The water...
