The next day we went into Ely to do laundry and Ramsey was at the Laundromat. He went home and got his camera card, allowing Spartan2 to copy his pictures.

This was a very different type of trip. I wasn’t doing the majority of the heavy lifting. Was in the bow, not the stern. Didn’t have to navigate. The emphasis was on fishing, not on scenery or photography. We had fresh food for dinners, not freeze dried. Going with someone I hardly knew versus someone I have tripped with many times. Having a SPOT along to send messages to someone waiting for us.

Not better or worse, just different.

I had a good time. I always have a good time in the BWCA.

If you would like to see Ramsey’s “take” on our trip, go to www.gowildernessjourney.com and it should be featured in the next issue of the monthly newsletter.

Thanks, Ramsey.
