Day Three

• Awake at 6:30 to a heavy fog.
• Paul, Chance and I take canoe out fishing. Paul and Chance each catch small-mouth bass. I have no luck.
• Alix meets us later in kayak. I am so proud of her confidence to take out the kayak and come find us.

• Fog burns off to reveal blue sky.
• Chance and I sit on Big Rock and do more Mad Libs.
• Alix paddles around.
• Chance and I discover a frog living in the rocks around the fire pit.
• Chance and I head out fishing in canoe for more fishing. Paul follows us later in kayak.
• Shortly after Chance want to go back to shore. I drop if off and go back out.
• Alix hops on the back of Paul's kayak for a ride.
• I catch a whopping 22" pickerel. Very thrilling but there is no way I am going to reach my hands in his mouth to take out the hook. Paul comes to my rescue and releases the scary thing.
  
  

• After lunch A&C have solo time in their tents while Paul and I take the kayaks to the entrance to the cove which is about a mile away. A&C are sound asleep when we get back.
• We wake them up to cycle them through sponge baths in the lake.
• I break out the beads and we all make jewelry and bookmarks.
• After dinner we paddle out beyond the entrance to Sunday Cove and around the corner until sun starts to set.
• Paddle back as nearly full moon rises. Water is so calm.
• Paul starts roaring fire but A&C go to bed early again. Paul and I stay up listening to NPR.
