GL: America the Beautiful Passport

[Wesley & Patty Eldred]

Elaine:

Agreed on all points except for one minor issue:  Using this route, you are 
going upstream on the Richlieu to Lake Champlain.  At most times the current 
is not troublesome but it sure is noticeable in contrast to the downstream 
St Lawrence leg from Montreal to Sorel.
Regards,

Wesley - on Lake Champlain
