Hanson Lake

We woke up to rain. Not super heavy, but enough to be annoying. I hung a tarp just out of reach of the fire pit and Matt, Gopher and I plunked down for breakfast of pancakes and gorp. While the rain let up after only an hour or so it was a generally overcast and cool day. Since we had no where we needed to be, and our out date was not until Saturday, we just collected any firewood we could find and sat staring at the flames for the entire day. The conversation was good, the gorp was better and the coffee and hot coco was the best. As the day drew to a close we hunkered down in my tent (it had begun to rain again) and played poker into the evening.
