Distance :
I didn't read carefully, so, uh, oops, but the distance from the put-in to the campground is further than I reported earlier - it's about 13 miles not 6-7. I don't think this will be a problem if we can get started even as late as 3:00 we will still have 5 hours till sunset (8:00). There is rain in the forecast Friday so I think we will have very favorable water levels.
Locations :
Here is a map showing the route and camping -

Plan :
Due to events scheduled Sunday, the distance we will paddle Saturday, and to keep things simple, let's just paddle to the campground on Saturday and not paddle on to the Kempson's Bridge landing Sunday. We won't need to carry camping gear in the canoes.
As noted, the Broams have soccer till about noon Saturday. If we can get somebody else to pull the canoe trailer to the and maybe get some things prepositioned, we can get a timely start.
We'll need a dinner Saturday and breakfast Sunday. Due to the timing of things on Saturday, it would be good to pack a heavy snack for in the canoes.
