Voyageurs National Park 2023, Sunday, 9/17

0645-54F/49F, solar 68%, house battery 12.5v. High clouds, calm.

0810-Finished my Bible study. Verse for the day: "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you."  (Matthew 7:7)

0845-Reading this morning out of "Why God Makes Sense In A World That Doesn't." Time to make breakfast.

0915-Preparing to depart anchorage.

0940-Motored away heading SE. Observed tent/boat campers at the nearby island camp site on the way out.

Circled around the point on south side of Johnson Bay to see what happened to the old boat site I used in 2021.  It appears to have been removed. I have no clue why.


2021 Boat Site Removed - A Mystery?


Proceeded along the border to the east. Along the way several boat sites were empty but on arrival at my destination area a boat was moored at each of two ideal spots I was hoping to use. So, I moved on.

1150-I arrived at an alternative site at Beaver Bay (N56). A nice beach but the ambiance was not in the category of the others sites which were occupied. Leg 5 was 9.7 miles.

1250-Completed dishes. I may set up the shower later. Water temp is 63F.

1320-Checked around the site but walking here is very limited. Not a desirable site. I intend to shower today since it is overdue.


Nice Beach

1500-Set up the aft deck shower and the hot shower really felt good! A power boat went by while I was showering. Changed into clean clothes and feel much better. Most of the rig is put away but I'm drying the shower curtains before I stow them.

Will get a pizza ready to bake.  I'm hungry!


Gang Plank Helps Keep Sand Out

1650-Finished my pizza, salad, and cold beer. Baileys over ice cream for dessert. Haven't decided if I will put out the fire ring. Watching the weather which is not the best currently. Cloudy, 70F/64F. Solar 75%, house battery 12.5v.


Cloudy Evening

1930-Finished the Jack Reacher novel (audio book) while I sat by the table top fire in the cockpit. Still cloudy. 66F/58F. Solar 75%. House battery 12.4v.
