As per tradition, it's not a summer if we don't go back country camping. I found a route in Killarney, our favourite park. This year we went with only 6 of us. It was very different leaving two people behind.
A beautiful day to head into the bush! We arrived at Bell Lake and headed to Johnie Lake for the first night.
Matthew, being the oldest kid along, had a lot of heavy work to do to help out.
Evelyn's pack was nothing to sneeze at either. She did not approve of it but eventually we got it on her back in an acceptable manner and she carried it over our first portage.
Once at the campsite we could relax and enjoy the view across the lake.
Matthew and Daniel got a fire going.
Evelyn painted a fish.
I worked on dinner.
We cooked the sausage in the pasta this year. So much more delicious. You can add leftover cheese from lunch too.
Yum. Jennifer approved of dinner.
We had a sandy beach, which the kids took advantage of after dinner.

I noticed for the first time that Philip and Daniel were wearing eye-glass strips. I can imagine that they would not want to lose their glasses should the canoe ever flip!
I was thinking, before you know it you and Philip will be taking these trips alone...that's hard to imagine! Enjoy them with the kids while you can! It looks like you had great weather. Always a bonus.
