This week, Kate points out that summer has officially started, as has cottage and camping season. What better than a story that could be told around a campfire? Plus, Paul has the story of Montreal's Louise Armaindo - trapeze artist, circus strongwoman, marathon walking competitor, and professional high-wheel (penny farthing) bike racer in the late 1800's. Louise has been described as the greatest female athlete. Unfortunately her life and accomplishments have been largely forgotten today.
