Tuesday, June 01, 2010 – Stormed all night, but we kept dry and the tarp kept everything else dry. Made breakfast burritos with just sausage, 100 percent better. Packed up camp and headed out to Thursday Bay. Made it to the pictographs and snapped a few pictures, and then the storm hit. Proceeded to rain as we stopped at table rock and looked around. This was just about the point that Jake made a derogatory remark about the weather. I reminded him at least we don’t have 2 foot waves slapping us around. Rain finally let up after Wednesday Bay. Started noticing all the campsites, north of Wednesday Bay, were occupied. Same trend into Thursday Bay. I was beginning to get a little worried as it was approaching the afternoon and I knew there were only a handful of sites on Friday Bay. Another storm was rolling in, so we took a chance and made our way to the first island site on Thursday Bay. Bingo, it was open and we set up camp in the rain. Another side note, I didn’t notice until after we unloaded the canoe in the front of the site, but there is a really nice level landing just to the west of the site. Jake found a make shift bow and arrow. He proceeded to shoot the contraption and smacked himself in the face with the arrow. Not to be outdone by my thirteen year old, I went down to the lake to get some water for coffee and hot coco. As I’m going down the wet inclined rocks, I was thinking to myself this is not very smart and just like that I slipped into the lake. Jake had a good laugh. Got into some dry cloths and made tacos for dinner. After dinner Jake caught a handful of smallies and a northern from shore. We took a hike around the island looking for traces of animal life. Did find what looked like pine cones pulled apart in a nice little pile. Later that evening we had a grosse walk between Jake and myself as I was fishing and he was monkeying around. Paddled 11 miles with no portages for the day.
