Day 8: Potluck Dinner and Cream Puff Delights

Today was to be the pancake cook off. Marianne simply conceded when she heard that Gerhard had soaked raisins in Contreau overnight in preparation. . . . 

Sauteed apples with raisins. 

Yes, this was working for Marianne. 

Breakfast delivery is a win in my books!

As the smells wafted through the camp, more tasters showed up. 

One more day of wood chopping. 

Cream puffs are in the works. 

Bacon-wrapped meatloaf. 

Operation Bring the Boat Up the hill is about to begin. 

Hunting for crabs never losing its appeal. 

Bentley prefers to test Grandma's couch. 

We took the Lady Jayne for a stiff sail outside of Pender Harbour. Nothing broke :). 

Brian's treasure after radar detecting near Davis Bay. 

Gold!

Let the potluck begin. 

Apparently, a good time was had by one and all :). 

A corn cob for the turtle. Never fear, we rescued the cob soon after. 

Tradition. 

I think we had the biggest!

After cream puffs we have birthday cake for Dad. Happy 76th!

Day 7: Chore Day

Our first 'good bye' as Seth and Taryn ride the motorcycle home again. 

It is time to restock the wood pile. 

Jordan is an expert stacker and carrier. 

One crew chops and stacks while the other scavenges in the forest. 

A little tire changing in the middle of the cul-de-sac as loads of logs arrive. 

Break time. 

Mark and Shawna arrive with the kayak and Laser II. 

The lake is going to sleep as the sun sets on another day. 

Dinner: Chicken legs and Mac and Cheese with sausage. 

S'more time.
