There was light rain during the night. It was 60 degrees in the tent and outside it was misty or light rain all morning.

About noon we went out for about two hours on a wood gathering and fishing trip. I caught a 19” bass and 2 pike.

I also caught a 5” or 6” bass with a pike attached. We didn’t land the pike. Ramsey also caught several fish.

Mid-afternoon it was 64. While out we saw a loon family of two adults and one chick.

For a late lunch we had grilled chicken, garlic potatoes, asparagus, and a nectarine.

I had told Ramsey the story of how on a trip to Pine Lake years ago I had found a teeny-tiny tree in a downed log and how Spartan2 had planted it, hoping it would survive. Then about going back years later and not being able to identify for sure where she had planted it. Ramsey then took my folding trowel and planted the little tree I had found.

About 6:00 we went out fishing for about an hour. I caught 2 pike and 2 bass. Ramsey caught several fish, too.

Dinner was pike and walleye with mac and cheese.

At 10:40 it was 62 in the tent.
