I will usually carry a diary when I’m out camping. At the end of the day if I’m not too tired I’ll record observations and thoughts about the day’s events. Sometimes there is a story to tell. Sometimes I fall asleep with the pen in my hand. It’s a good way to settle in at night.
2015 saw another trip to another new place. This time a friend I made through Scouts and I checked out one of Wisconsin’s flowages while my oldest was up for a week of summer camp near by.
2020 brought the pandemic and lots of uncertainty. Thankfully, canoe camping is well situated for social distancing. I got to check out the area near Lac La Croix with the Scouts in July. Mid September I also took my brother Charlie on his first canoe camping trip. (Trip reports yet to be published)
