Day 3 of 6
Tuesday, August 08, 2006 We all woke up with one thought. Well after we started drinking coffee, no one could believe that we had only seen a couple skeeters. The wind was blowing pretty hard and we were all pretty tired. The day was spent reading, fishing from the bank around camps, and lounging in the hammocks. Joel paddled down and ran for awhile on the Sioux Hustler Trail. When he got back and told the stories of how he had to shoot across the bay and then ride the wind into camp, none of us ventured very far in the canoe.
