  Ladies, welcome. If I can have your attention, please. Today, we gather here at Indianhead to celebrate a special milestone – the 40 th birthday of our fearless Captain Anne.

  Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW) summer 2024 trip We had a perfect week in the BWCA. Blue skies every day, highs in the upper 70s, lows in the 50s. No rain. Minimal bugs. We had a fantastic site. Nice day trips and picnic lunches. Caught some fish. Played games and roasted s'mores. Other than the full moon putting a damper on the night sky and northern lights, it was basically a 5 stay week! We made some haiku's the describe the trip, enjoy! BWCAW Haikus  by John, Seth, Katie, Lauren, Theo and Marit Entry one-four, go! Two canoes paddle by turtles, down winding river.   Portages we go, Hauling packs, paddles and poles.
