General:
All back together today. Once Dan arrived on the V-II, Don & Steve portaged a kayak over to L. Mason for Don to fish. Sean & Dan hung out in the shelter & talked and talked and talked. Steve came back & napped, then headed for the harbor for more fishing. Sean & Dan swam, then gathered wood for a fire to cook fish. Don got back with a big Pike & we got a roaring fire going to cook it. Steve invited the neighbors over for some fresh fish. They brought cous-cous, smoked white fish, smoked trout, and a small bottle of scotch. Pretty good neighbors. We packed up early in preparation for Don & Steve to head out on open water back to Daisy in the morning....to bed, to bed...
Dan:
Thunderstorm moved in overnight. Woke up at dawn (I think) with steady rain. Don't know what time it is & have to be on dock at 8.30 for boat. During a break in the rain, quick packed up & scooted to visitor center. About 2 hours early! Decided to kill time at the snack bar instead of on a bench with my tiny stove & oatmeal. Had hot coffee, granola & english muffin + a banana. Great conversation with Heather my waitress. She told me all about how she got the job and has done this kind of thing for the past 3 summers.

V-II left on time. Pulled up at Chip harbor. Don was there on the dock. I waved & waved, but he plain did not recognize me. Finally he realized it was me & his jaw hit the dock...priceless! Steve came down & said he'd been figuring I'd come dragging into camp in the late afternoon drenched from rain & he was feeling sorry for me...quite surprised to see me walking off that boat.
