Wednesday, June 20, 2007 Up early with a bit of rain but no wind. After a breakfast of oatmeal and coco we broke camp and headed to Birch. By the time we got the canoe in the water and were on our way, the clouds cleared and it turned out to be great weather for paddling. We made good time to Birch with no problems. The campsite we wanted was unoccupied so we set up camp. Jr went off to explore the trails and I cleaned up the campsite. Jr met a couple from Minneapolis and their dog. He came back later and brought the man (Sean) with him. We introduced ourselves and talked for a bit. Jr did not not want to do much fishing, so white I did some fishing from shore, Jr entertained himself by turning some of the logs for the fire into bowling pins and using another log tie to a sip line he made as the bowling ball. He was also able to hang the tarp, something he wanted to do since the first day. We had a good supper, campfire and off to bed.
