The last few days have been rough, due to constant rain. The shelter at the campsite was a godsend. We had breakfast there, protected from the rain. The other couples commented about our nice cookware and dishes. Last night, I did pasta with the leftover meat from the restaurant with sautéed garlic and onion. I used the leftover broth from the mussels for the sauce. They were quite impressed. Then, this AM, the ranger turned on the power, so we quickly warmed up our scrambled eggs on our George Forman grill. We brought kitchenware with us from home, rather than buying camp stuff. So, we have nice plates, stemware,etc. When they break, we will go to Goodwill and buy more.
We had lunch in a log cabin diner called "One Stop". The sign said....."One Stop: liquor, moose burgers, and cabins". We had Newfoundland beer made with water from icebergs and moose burgers. The burgers were good...like lean hamburgers. The waitress/cook/owner told us that her husband and son would each kill a moose this October during hunting season which would supply themselves and their restaurant for a year. George had a pigeon berry tart with berries she had picked.
We went to an insectarium. It was surprisingly fun and interesting. We walked through a butterfly garden, then saw interesting displays and bugs from around the world.
It stopped raining about 5:00, so camped rather than staying in a motel. Great soup over the campfire. George added cod to his.
