Day 3 of 3
Friday, July 31, 2015 Day 3 it was time to pack up and leave. Too short of a trip, but I was glad for the serenity. Luck would have it this was the best day. Sun was out, few clouds and no wind. On one of the Portages back out I talked with a Scouter (Boy Scout Adult), they spent the night in the campsite next to mine. They were on Loon Lake during the wind and rain. It was a challenge for them with 4 foot waves. He was happy with the beautiful day on our way out. Back to Ely for a shower and change of clothes. By the way if you rent your canoe from Voyageur North the shower is free along with a cold one from their fridge. By now it was mid-day so I decided to make it a two day drive back to Indianapolis. The trip was too short, but it gave me the time I needed to think.
