Devil's Track Lake Campground - Day 2

4am! What am I doing awake?! Pretty wide awake and I had to pee. I didn’t want to walk to the outhouse alone. Sometimes I get a little weird like that. Turns out we all to pee. So Lorrie, I, and the dogs all squatted outside together. (= Now *that’s* bonding! Back to sleep for a few hours before getting up to a busy day of relaxation! Lorrie made breakfast on the Whisperlite, bacon and eggs. Got things cleaned up then headed to the little store a couple miles away for some wood and ice. They didn’t have wood! What?? So we had to drive a little closer t town to buy a stack on the side of the road. Money supposedly went to the local hockey team. (= On the way back we stopped to check out a resort on the way and some private cabins. The resort was okay but the cabins were very cute! Beautiful views! Once we were back, Lorrie made lunch of TVP (texturized vegetable protein –> soy) tacos. Then the clouds started rolling in and it looked like a big storm. So we closed things down and jumped in the tent. We played cards, read, and took a nap while the very small storm passed over us. Afterwards, we went for a little hike. Deep grass that was recovering from snowmobilers. Beautiful flowers! Tori and Emma Blue both did great! We just took it slow and grabbed some kindling along the way.

Back at the site, we got a fire started and lounged some more. Hot dogs over the fire for dinner. (= While getting the fire going, a huge, loud group of women and children pulled into the tiny site across from us. Three huge tents, I don’t know how many kids, and at least 3 women, one of whom had the loudest most annoying voice. That sucked. But we ignored them…. and their 3 or 4 yappy dogs. They were still loud as we were getting ready for bed though most of it by then was the 3 women gossiping around the fire. Some interesting details about peoples’ lives. Too bad I don’t know them! Ha! They eventually went to bed as well.
