Woke up to rain. It stopped raining long enough to pack our wet tents and eat breakfast. breakfast was what ever was left. rice, foil pack chicken, PB, very thin coffee with maple syrup in it (good!). That was about it. We headed out. It started to rain and rained the whole way out. we decided to skip the portage into agnes and do the beaver dams instead. The dams werent bad going downstream, but the bugs were fierce in the marsh. We saw alot of ducks. The rain really slowed us down and we were about 45 minutes late getting out. we passed a bunch of people heading in that day and were thankful for our good weather and that is was our last day and not our first. We passed a group of guys who had a cooler and a bunch of rubbermaid containers, one of those suitcase stoves, and alot of stuff in garbage bags, and no rain gear. There canoe literally looked like a trash barge. I wished them luck as the decided to shoot the rapids on the Nina moose river after their fourth trip across the portage.....

We made it out, tired, wet, and starving. had our showers and Hamms at VNO and went to Cranberries for our first meal since scraps that morning. It was about 7pm, we went back to VNO, remembered what TV was and all fell asleep with the tube on. Next day we drive back to chicago and back to work....... boooo
