Sunday, May 19, Day 8


We slept in until 7:00 this morning, since we don’t have turn in our log until 8:30. There were a few raindrops falling when we set out on our rounds at 7:30, so for insurance we took an umbrella.

Smart move, since part way around, it really started raining. We came across a tent camper with 2 young daughters who was going to pack up & leave a day early because it was cold & raining. He also asked how he could get rid of the “fruit flies”. He hadn’t brought any bug spray for the black flies, which weren’t all that bad. 
While we were at the office, this same man came in to say he was leaving! He had packed up fast. We also learned that a couple was evicted this morning for disorderly conduct & drunkenness last night. 

 
Then it was back to our site for breakfast – scrambled eggs & trout! It was delicious!
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
The rain has let up and after a delicious breakfast, I went to the Visitor Centre for internet.

I got back in time for our 2:00 rounds. The campers beside us left a day early and gave us their firewood! On the rounds, we found several campers who were booked until tomorrow, but packed up & left today. Too bad, because it cleared up & was sunny & warm in the afternoon.  

Next job was laundry, which was interesting since the machines take a loonie – which I never have! Managed to get some from the office and got the job done. 

We went for a walk-about after supper and heard from the Wardens that someone was setting off fireworks last night & got a warning. Those folks were packing up to leave when we went by. It is another lovely evening with a low predicted of 14C (57.2F).
All in all, it was a beautiful day!
