Canal Fulton Kayaking
Canal Fulton Canoe Livery
So, on our 10 year anniversary, my husband and I went to the Canal Fulton Canoe Livery and rented a canoe. It was a nice, quiet ride, until we turned one bend, and saw these 3 massive black animals in the water! From 200 feet away we weren’t sure, were they bears? Turned out they were just cows from the local dairy farm… Ha Ha! Find your own cows – Website, 330.854.4008
