Betty Jean's Maiden Voyage

My Dad built this canoe over the length of the last month. This is the first time he put it out on the water, and not only the first canoe he's built but also the first canoe he's paddled around.
This was filmed 7/7/11, at Tom Wallace Park in Fairdale, Louisville, Ky.
It was a lot of fun!!
