Sun 21 Aug

Back home again. Very nice trip to Isle Royale, nice cabin to stay in, blessedly calm lake for the boat ride both ways as well as the smaller boat rides on the Sandy. Blessedly beautiful sunshine. Saw a moose within about an hour of getting off the boat, drinking water from Tobin Bay a little ways down from the seaplane dock. Stepped on a good-sized garter snake (didn't seem to hurt him) on the trail between the cabins and the lodge. Saw a fox another day making its way away from another cabin. Saw several cute red squirrels and a large bunny rabbit on the trail. Saw a bald eagle, a peregrine falcon, and a bittern. Got laundry started and a relaxing day prior to needing to cantor for 6 pm tonight (and probably Fr. Todd - sigh!) Just started to rain.
