Fish Hatchery

Some people, I'm not mentioning any names... (Ok it was me, but why get into specifics??) may have had sore calves from yesterday's trek....

So we planned a more mellow day.

Blueberry pancakes cooked on the fire, yoga on the shore, cool plunge in the lake, a packed picnic and off to the fish hatchery.

Call it trust, call it friendship, call it fuzzy thinking, we followed Jill.

Look closely, there is her van way off in the distant forest.


We were not let down. The fish swimming upstream and leaping up the rock steps were so much fun to watch! With fresh thimble berries for snacking deliciousness.

Some got better views than others.

The jr. set might have enjoyed the means of transportation most of all.


Playgrounds, picnics, ball playing, then back to camp for canoe-ing, bike riding, fort play, skipping rocks and amazing food.

Food; that was amazing. Without any prior coordinating our collective meals were perfect, totally complimentary; completely delicious.

Campfire songs (thank you Greg) a s'more or two; putting the kids to bed has never been easier.

Not a bad day.
