Success. Fishin' Accomplished. After several hours drive and a few near-misses with leaping elk, we set up camp on the Black River. That is, Isaac and Elijah set up camp, while I chased Charlotte around in the dark. She is fearless and couldn't care less if she can see where she's going. Hence, the bandaid.
A friendly camp-neighbor came by to offer assistance. Within minutes, Isaac and he discovered that they were born within days of each other in the same exact hospital and were there together as newborns. Weird! This has made me wonder...How often do we come across people that we're connected to in some strange way, never discovering the connection? We'll never know! What if the bank teller is really my best friend from kindergarten, I just don't recognize her? Frustration and fascination all at once. Makes for a great camping memory though, doesn't it? Especially because Gavin, the virtual twin, took us fishing the next day and Elijah caught a "Cut-throat" trout (that's really what they're called). Very exciting! But, I missed it --I was napping in the car. As you can see from the photo, we were up watching Teletubbies into the night, trying to contain Charlotte and lull her to sleep. Aaah, technology! It was a good nap though.
