We woke up early again. (up at 5:00, on water at 6:30, back to Rockwood at 8:00) We left our campsite. We showered at Rockwood and talked to them. (Mike and Lin who are great outfitters and great people) We ate at Trail Center again. They have big pancakes. Then we drove home. I was happy to see mommy and M. When do I get to go to the Boundary Waters again?

For a few years now (ever since reading about Kiporby's trips with his daughter) I've been dreaming about a daddy/daughter trip with my girls. It was everything I had hoped for and more. The quality bonding time I had with my daughter was simply amazing. I am very proud of my little girl. She grew up a lot on this trip and she is a great tripping partner. I'm looking forward to the same thing with little M next year as well as a trip with the whole family. It was great meeting "MagicStik" and part of his family on Caribou (thank you for the fishing info that helped H get her first BWCA fish fry) and "Tony" at the Trading Post in Grand Marais. The people from this site are so cool and it was nice meeting some in person.
