The annual canoe/kayak trip (Part 2)



This is a picture of our campsite. Note the canopy. That was a most welcome item this year. On Friday, we had off and on rain, mostly light, but one period of heavy rain. Having a place to keep our gear and ourselves dry, was a real plus! This particular model can be spread further out or close in. Obviously, by spreading it out, you have more dry ground. But it's also nice to push it in, making it easier to get into and offering more headroom.

My everyday work life is filled with much stress and aggravation. It was a real pleasure to be able to just sit and listen to the gentle breeze blowing through the trees, listening to the birds, especially the loons, or having stimulating conversations with my camping buddies. Wonderful therapy!

Below are more pictures which I hope can give you a sense of this beautiful tranquil area that I love to come back to every year.






Watch for at least one more post on this trip. You may think the drive home would be without incident and a downer. . . ah! You never count this group out when it comes to excitement!!!! Stay tuned. The best is yet to come!
