Cool name

I went on a canoe trip this weekend to Twin Bridges and saw a town on the way there called "Fordland". I wanted to stop in it but the caravan of cars I was in wouldnt let me. Thought it would be cool to find something there with its name on there. It was just this side of springfield so not to far.


CAnoe trip was a blast. Havent decided if I drank more river water or beer while I was there. Beer was definatly in the lead until the waterfall. It is a little hard to canoe down a 3 ft drop waterfall while you have been drinking for 6 hours.

I tried saying no Ryan but for some odd reason I put 20 beers and only 3 pops in my cooler. I think the cooler was actually made for beer only because once I put the beer in it just wouldnt make any more room for the pop.
