August 26-9, 2020 - Mark, Marsh, Ruth, & Me (Saganaga)
Wednesday 8-26-20
I missed the "cut" to our favorite campsite so we decided to tour the sites north of the Granite River. We made our way back past Horseshoe Island and found Choice #1 campsite was EMPTY much to our joy!! It took 2 hours to get to this site & we celebrated our landing with a bottle of Steel Reserve.
Supper was steak, sweetcorn, & a huge salad. The evening was topped off with a campfire & beverages.
Thursday 8-27-28
Thursday morning was a beautiful day! Cooper went on a fishing daytrip & we played cribbage and napped. We played more cribbage and Bill took a bucket bath. Ruth, Coopers, and Chloe swam. Supper was hot dogs, salad, & sweetcorn. We took a tour of the western islands and toured the beautiful Canadian cabins. We arrived back at camp at dark & enjoyed Mark's campfire.
Friday 8-28-20
We wake to rain showers at 6:30. We headed to the tarp & drank Starbucks French Roast Coffee, & scrambled eggs prepared by Bill. They were almost as good as the ones Ruth makes at home. Coopers got up at about 9:00 and the rain had basically stopped. We visited with Coops as they ate their breakfast.
Bill took a nap and woke up in time to visit with Coops before they went fishing. We pondered the beauty of the wilderness while eating lunch.
Saturday 8-29-20
We packed up and headed towards the landing. We towed Cooper's boat but the weather was a bit rough and their canoe filled with water. We dragged the canoe until we we made it to a safe spot to dump out the water. Coopers then paddled their canoe and we transported their gear back to the landing.
