Rose from a long slumber to find everything wet. As long as it rained - and the many lightning/thunder bouts, we did not have any wind.

Repeat breakfast. Clouds stuck around for a while. Headed out to fish again. This trip has been nothing short of relaxing. No late breaking news, no political drama, and no contact from the outside world.

We paddled by a huge beaver lodge on the NE shoreline. Almost looked as if a trail from the woods was formed on top.....Later that afternoon, we heard a loud thud/splash and speculated someone dropped their canoe at the portage. As we looked across the lake, we saw a bull moose swimming after entering the lake from the beaver lodge. It's been a while since we've seen a bull. Full velvet - and swimming at a pace faster than any canoe that had paddled through. Awesome animals - such a cool feature of the BWCA.

Put our chairs on the rocks along the lake for the evening.....the little breeze finally gave us freedom from mosquitos.
