New portapotty enclosure looking rather magical. (Thanks to Doug and his brother for all the hard work on this!)

Sad to hear about this. Many of the older paddlers here will know Peter. He paddled in his slalom boat into his 70s. Wonderful man. https://ottawacitizen.remembering.ca//peter-twidale-107918
