Every day consisted of the same routine. I am an early riser, my wife, she likes to sleep. I got up around 6, crept out of the tent made my coffee, fished, and messed around in camp. Around 8 my wife got up and we planned our day. Our plan for the day was to head up to Cattyman falls for a day trip. We made fry pan bread and eggs for breakfast packed up, and set out on our journey. The day was sunny with no rain in the forecast. The little lakes to the North of Disappointment are a wonderful. Short portages and beautiful scenery. Within about 2 hours we reached the falls. Cattyman falls is just gorgeous. The water was rushing over the falls and making a thunderous sound. We decided to eat lunch just below the falls on the bank. It was so relaxing. After lunch, we paddled around Cattyman lake, I caught a northern, and we then headed home. The trip home took longer then expected, my wife got pretty tired out so paddling took longer then expected. But hey, were in no rush. We especially enjoyed Adventure lake on the way home and wished there would have been a campsite there, what a gem.

After we got back from camp, we cooled off in the lake, took a little nap, and then made dinner, Fajitas. For desert, it was reflector oven brownies, AMAZING!!!! Before we made our dinner and fire for the night I was searching for fire wood I came across an intact turtle shell in the woods, pretty cool to find. After dinner we sat around the fire, my wife wrote in her journal, and then we ate marshmallows and talked late into the night again under the bright stars.

The one thing that did bother us was the amount of ticks. I have never seen that many ticks up there before. They were everywhere. We at least pulled 20 off us a day.
