BWCA Day #5




Friday, August 29th

The morning was cool and sunny. We had a solid breakfast of pancakes and toasted English muffins. No matter was the situation or implements available, Dad will always be able to make a great pancake!

Kristen got a short lesson on knots: Square, bowline, half & full hitch, and trucker’s hitch. “The rabbit runs out of their hole, around the tree, and back down. – Bowline!”

A short paddle took us out to the end of Seagull and back to the truck.

After one of the best weeks in the BWCA, I reflected to myself in the back of the truck on the way out. This was a completely relaxing, and satisfying adventure with my Dad and sister. I hope that in the next few years we can share this trip with the other members of the family.
