mudgkins

spur of the moment, i dropped everything here, and went to mudge island on saturday morning. the stewarts have a cabin there. ian came with. good times were had... tanning, walking and game playing were all done.

it's only my second time there, but i really like it. you're pretty dirty the whole time... there is running water, and a shower, but there's also a serious water shortage issue there, despite being an island, so showering is discouraged.

somehow we managed to get on the ferries we needed on the way there and back. there was of course a problem with one of the ferries on the way back, so it was pretty much an iffy choice...we went to a different terminal first, and they were asking people to come back in an hour just to line-up! so we decided to try a different one, and amazingly we got on. yahoo!

there were no attempts at canoeing this trip. but i did bring an extra pair of pants in case i needed to change. the weather was great, until about two hours before we left the island. in the boat on the way from gabriola to mudge the water was so choppy we totally got wet. so we didn't get to do a sunset cruise, or see the phosporous, but there was plenty of entertainment. we even brought some drinks over and celebrated ian's birthday on saturday night.

backing it up... friday night was ursula and danielle night. yoshi was the master of daisy and peaches (and mario too). and we played crib and had yummy dinner made by danielle. yahoo! we also went to dariy queen. (i drove, danielle was drunk by the time i got to her house).
