Camping Day 72

Belle Isle SP
Sunday September 30, 2007

This is also our 100th day camping since we purchased the Flagstaff last June.

Today we had a group breakfast which we cooked in dutch ovens. We made Mountain Man breakfast while Doug and Athena made the biscuits. I started the charcoal inside the fire ring and started to cook the bacon but it wasn't doing very well. So I decided there wasn't enough air flow for the charcoal and moved to my standby hubcap method.

Doug used the coals in the fire ring to do the baking. After we finished breakfast Doug and Athena along with Glenn and Sue started to pack up to leave. We had chosen to stay another day so after saying our good bye's we headed for the boat launch to put the kayaks in the water and spend a few hours exploring areas of Deep Creek that we did not do on our last visit.

As we were loading the kayaks after our paddle we noticed a class C with Vermont plates making a tour of the park. A while later they pulled in to the camp ground and choose a site several away from ours. After we finished supper we took a walk with Logan and visited with the folks from Vermont. They are from the White River Junction area and we had a good visit and exchanged information on various campgrounds. They were not familiar with North Beach in Burlington Vermont so we described it and suggested they reserve early if they plan to spend time there.
