We decided to load up the canoe for a November paddle on the lake! It was a picture perfect afternoon! The rain stopped, the sun came out and the water was calm! Always love how great our car looks with the trailer and canoe on the back! lol And oh ya! It was soooo nice on the lake! #PhilippineMars #SproatLake #Canoe #PortAlberni #History #Aviation #USNavy

@cageyratfish oh no!
Rumour is going around the 18th is the go-date but weather dependant! -
Beautiful! Looks like a perfect day for a paddle.

She was looking fantastic on the water! Love the detailing they've done with the original US Navy paint job. #PhilippineMars #SproatLake #Canoe #PortAlberni #History #Aviation #USNavy

It's a big plane. We had to touch her to say goodbye properly! She is likely going to fly out sometime around the 16th to Arizona's Pima Air and Space Museum. This plane has been on (or beside) our lake all 47 years of my life and then some. I will miss her (and her sister #HawaiiMars) very much!!

It's still got some parts that show its age! Like the little patch on the bottom where they weren't able to paint it 15 years ago because it was sitting on stands. #HawaiiMars #PhilippineMars #SproatLake #Canoe #PortAlberni #History #Aviation #USNavy

They have the GoPro ready and mounted on one pontoon for some epic video! Did I mention this is a large aircraft?

A final video as we paddle to shore.
Goodbye Philippine. You served us so well and will continue to amaze people for decades to come! This time in the dry air of the Arizona desert!

@wlf_warren many many! Built in 1945. Spent more than a decade transporting troops and goods across the ocean and then firefighting in BC from the 60s to 2000.

@chris oh i should have the truck running by then
, if not i imagine she'll fly over the harbour like Hawaii did & i can just walk or bike down to harbour quay to watch.
