Day 1 of 3

We headed onward to Duluth and stopped in the Duluth Pack store to get our permit. I was excited for Ruby to watch the L.N.T. video and I made her take the test all by herself. She got every question right! We then looked around the store for a few minutes and she found a souvenir she wanted to get. I let her pick out a BWCA patch for her backpack.
We then went back to my brother's place in Duluth to spend the night.
I peeled out of work at around 2:30pm on Friday to scoop up Ruby, my seven year old daughter. We loaded up the canoe and the rest of the gear and stopped for a quick pre-trip picture.
