Grass Growing in a Canoe

We are at the Wooden Canoe Heritage Association meet at Paul Smith’s College in the Northern Adirondacks. Here on the “Green” or large field they were displaying lots of wood canoes. There were many canoes that were projects and in need of repair such as this one. This canoe has most of its wooden ribs and is missing most of its wood planking and canvas. While resting on the ground, the grass is poking up through the floor.
