Day 6 Already our last day had arrived! Hard to believe that the time moved so quickly in the Northwoods. It always seems like the trip is over almost as quickly as it begins in the area! This day was full with fishing (attempts) and canoeing adventures. My Mother-In-Law tried her first smore (hard to believe) and the family enjoyed the "dump cake" I learned to make for dessert in our dutch oven. We stopped by and thanked Deb and the Seagull Staff for providing us with a great experience in the cabin! We were treated to a great sunset to cap off the week and spent the evening gathering and packing for our long trip home.

Day 7 Our return trip day had arrived. We greeted the morning with a fantastic sunrise on another clear, clam day and began our drive down the trail. Not far from the Seagull offices is the Moose Pond. This morning it lived up to its name as we watched a mother moose and her two calves take a morning swim across the pond. We stopped for the photo opportunity, then reluctantly, stepped back into our vehicles and began our 14 hour sojourn home.

The cabin experience offered at Seagull Outfitters is an awesome way to see the BWCAW and have all the conveniences of home (including satellite TV!) My youngest daughter was more interested sometimes in seeing the latest episode of SpongeBob Squarepants than watching a great sunset, but as the week ticked along, we were able to pry her away! This is a fantastic trip for young families and even my In-Laws enjoyed the creature comforts of the cabin that a tent experience lacks! As I recount the time we spent together, I'm certain that in many ways This experience will be among our families favorite vacation memories. I look forward to visiting the cabins of Seagull Outfitters again - who knows...maybe it will convert the paddler in me...NOT a chance!
