Day 4 of 5
Tuesday, July 24, 2012 I woke up as early as I could. I'm not a morning person, but it was my goal to get a good mist and fog picture or two, as Dad had done.
There was another place to "park" a canoe at on a different side, which had cool rock areas that I enjoyed going onto the water at.

Dad had walked the portage to Grandpa Lake, to see if he wanted to go there, so we decided to do the same. The walk itself was fun because of the people and nature around us, but just like Dad I was glad we didn't have to bring a canoe up and down that trail!! I did highly enjoy jumping on the wood bridges it had though!

Grandpa Lake itself was beautiful, but much smaller than Seagull lake, it also contained Toad #1 and Frogs #2 & #3!

We went back to the Amok site and relaxed the rest of the day. I took a picture of a canoe where Dad's would have been before we brought it up though, and managed to get the now cut down tree that he had tied it to in the picture.
I took a night picture, because it is something I love, and it was the last night to enjoy it.
