I finally did it, thanks to the latested artheritis drugs. The weather was great, the lake was flat as a pancake, the fishing was slow but I caught a few and I got woke up by mama loon and her young splashing around in front of the tent. We only went for one night and I'm kind of sore but it was fun.

Thanks, I was sittin by the fire at about 6 AM having a cup of coffee when I looked at the boat and thought it would make a nice photo with the fog and the reflections. and it did. :D EDIT: we were checking out one of the upper most remote campsights when we rounded a bend into a small bay and there was a EMPTY boat sitting there, as we got close to it to check it out, all we could see was skin flying every witch way.OOPS talk about wild life.

Glad to hear you made the trip. Drugs are doing some wonderful things aren't they?

An air matress makes a world of difference! Definetely worth the money spent for it. I usually find the rocks in the middle of my back about midnight, but with the air matress I sleep like a baby in my tent. Looks like a lot of fun OMC!

yes that is a long time, my last fortune cookie said " If you think your to old to do something, do it" and I took that statement to heart. We are now planing a two nighter in aug near the finger lakes.
