Portages we go, Hauling packs, paddles and poles. Makes voyageurs strong!
The cousins carried their canoes 200 rods. They voyageurs now.
What's a perfect site? Great views, tent pads, jumping rock. We hit the jackpot!
Misty morning, coffee Beavers swim by in the bay, Reading on the rock.
Paddle to day hike Sioux Hustler trail to Devil's "Where is your permit?"
The greatest shower is not a shower at home but in a waterfall.
Upper, Lower Pauness lakes, Little Indian Sioux River Heritage, Shell, and Little.
Walleyes, perch, and bass Frogs and toads, and fisher, too. Swans, loons, hummingbird.
We caught many fish with green worms and night crawlers. Fake lures, not so much.
Shades of blue and green, Toads and frogs and eagles flew, Swans honk, loons call, too.
She taught him to play A new card game called cribbage. He skunked her, twice.
She won game of Qwix. Organized toad and frog hunt And had the best cheers.
Reason fifty-three Grandma J won't come with us, "Look what I found, Mom!" (holding a leech, frog, toad, mouse, snake, etc.)
Fishing, swimming, fun Camping, frogging, climbing, fun Fires and s'mores, fun!
Fishing is so fun. Better catch fish for dinner Rather than greenie.
Green trees, blue lakes, sky Only hear the sound of nature. God I love it here.
