Lined by magnificent French castles frozen in time, the Loire is nicknamed the royal river, with its breathtaking views of these jewels of Renaissance architecture. But the river is also a place to escape, to get back to nature and to discover a lesser-known heritage.  In Chaumont-sur-Loire, an association is bringing traditional flat-bottomed boats back to life, in order to offer tourists an exceptional view of the region's castles. Meanwhile, thanks to the development of a network of cycling paths, the most athletic visitors can now choose to admire the beauties of the royal river by bike.

Today's the day – London's gas lamps debuted on January 28th, 1807

High water levels and lingering ice are making for a treacherous start to the paddling season across the Boundary Waters this spring. Craig Regep, a resident of Hanover, Minnesota, experienced this firsthand at the start of a canoe trip in the BWCA on Friday, May 13. Regep's trip started at the end of the Arrowhead Trail on the far eastern side of the BWCA. He was paddling from John Lake to the Royal River en route to North Fowl Lake when he capsized in a solo Kevlar canoe. After tumbling into the frigid waters, Regep was alone and without a canoe. He did not have an emergency beacon or SPOT-location device. Hypothermia started to set in as Regep attempted to make his way back to the parking area at the end of the Arrowhead. Regep spoke of his experience with WTIP Boundary Waters co-host Joe Friedrichs in this discussion.

Vanessa Helmick started her Maine interior design business, Fiore Interiors, using a unique approach: she ignored all of her well-intentioned advisors, and made decisions that were best for her. She avoided networking, she moved out of the city of Portland, and she chose clients that she liked and who liked her aesthetic. Vanessa's aesthetic, one that she describes as “Scandi Beach,” is a combination of Scandanavian minimalism and a heavily textured coastal experience.  With each of her projects, she incorporates art into her design and engages with her clients to choose signature pieces that will enhance their daily lives.  Vanessa's own daily life has taken her to Yarmouth where she is raising her daughter, and their new pup, minutes away from her new storefront, located near the bustling boatyards of the Royal River. You'll enjoy getting to know more about Vanessa's personal and professional style on today's episode of Radio Maine with Dr. Lisa Belisle. Thank you for joining our Radio Maine community. 

On a beautiful sunny day we find ourselves back at the John Lake entry point. A light breeze is blowing and the crystal clear waters are beckoning. Jim and I begin our trip along the Border Route much like we had the year before. Traveling along the Royal River you are surrounded by cliffs and lush vegetation. The wild rice in some areas fills the horizon. Join us as we paddle from John Lake to North Fowl Lake.

Our big trip for the summer begins on the eastern edge of the BWCAW in John Lake.  Our plan is to follow the "Voyagers Highway" through the historic border lakes as we paddle west.  We head out from John lake through the Royal River in to South Fowl Lake then northwest into North Fowl Lake and end the episode on Moose Lake. With the recent rain in the are we encounter some vibrant colors on the portages which really makes hauling a pack almost not noticeable.  With three of us in the canoe we are able to make pretty decent time.  We have a great beginning to our trip. A theme you may hear us talk a lot about on this next series of shows is the head wind we encounter for the majority of our trip.  If you would like to take a similar trip we now recommend paddling from east to west.  :)
