Day 7 of 9
Thursday, July 13, 2023 Praise the Lord!!! Dad woke up feeling much better this morning! I think taking a day to relax yesterday was a good choice! We all feel well rested, and ready for the day. After breakfast we break camp and paddle with Agnes being the goal for the day. We paddle into the wind today and it really makes you appreciate having the wind at your back. We paddle hard today, but meet our goal and find a great site on the Southeast shore of Agnes. The 115r portage from the Boulder River to Lake Agnes is flat and well maintained for the most part. It's a bit muddy on the Boulder River end. I think it may be more muddy than normal this year with the water levels down so low. Once past the muddy part, it's easy peasy. We paddle from the portage head down the east shoreline of Agnes. Site #1808 has 2 good tent pads, and endless hammock hangs. The firegrate is a nice area with a large rock to lean against or climb to the top and sit on. There are several hammock hangs right next to the shoreline, with a great view of the lake! We worked hard today, set up camp, made vegetable soup for lunch and some of us took naps in the afternoon. Noah, Angelina, and Dakota all took naps. Levi and I played cards in the tent. Dad, Christopher, Noah, Joel, Levi, and I talked about past trips, and future trips and hung out around the firegrate. Levi and Joel are getting along really well today and hang out after everyone else goes to bed. It's really cool to see them getting along so well! Everyone is pretty tired today, time for bed and it's only 7 pm... I read a few chapters of Jack London's "Call of the Wild" and drift off to sleep. Levi and Joel took some photos with my camera...
