This was to be our day to move back to Lake Disappointment but, we decide to stay on Thomas another day to rest! We get up and I prepare pancakes with Strawberry Jam and butter. Kim and I decide to try and get to Sagus today across Fraser... we head out fishing as we go. We see an eagle sitting in a tree and Kim get some good video as a gull tries to run him off. We get half way across Fraser and dark clouds start rolling in behind us, we give up on Sagus and head back to camp. I can tell Kim is trying to be as game as she can be... but fighting the wind, and hitting knuckles on the sides of the canoe is about to take it's toll. I am very proud of her however, as she never complained... she wanted me to have and enjoy my vacation. We fight the wind hard and get back to camp where it starts to rain, I cook hamburger helper taco caserole under the tarp, we all eat and rest for the rest of the day, and get things ready to leave the next day to Lake Disappointment. Miles traveled this day 4. Weather, highs low 50's, lows at night mid to upper 30's, wind... as always... 20+ mph it seems! Wildlife we saw the eagle and the other couple had a mother moose and baby almost run into camp on them... scared them bad!! Still no bugs!!
