Summary

Two men and a dog paddling in a canoe on the Patawalonga River at Glenelg, early morning, 19 November 1948. Houses built along the river can be seen in the distance. 'Don Paterson and Doug Mackenzie. Photo, looking west, taken from approximately where the Buffalo Restaurant once stood. A considerable area of the western bank, from the old bridge almost to King Street was reclaimed for building and car parks. This considerably narrowed the magnificent sweep of water, as seen on the photo, when at full tide.' [Information supplied by Doug Mackenzie].
