| A Second Layover Day At Same Boat Site |
Got up turned on the heat and crawled back in bed. Hung shirt over heat to warm it up some before I put it on.
0745-Baked coffee cake to have with morning coffee during my study time. Listened to worship music while I worked.
Partly cloudy, calm, 69F/46F. Still cool outside.
0825-Bible study finished. Verse of the day: "The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them." (Psalms 34:7)
0930-Prayer and reading time finished, time to make breakfast.
1050-Fixed power center frame which was loose. Then made breakfast followed by doing the dishes. I will check messages and then go exploring and fishing with the dinghy.

| Checked Out R84 Boat Site Behind Me |
1225-Just got back from checking out the R84 boat site and trolling with a blue and silver spoon. No bites! Beautiful morning with puffy white clouds. Returned along the north side of Lyman Island on the way back.

| My Dinghy Track - 1.9 Miles |
Traveled 1.9 miles with an average speed of 1.8 mph. Used 7% of the outboard battery. Trolled at a slightly slower speed using 25% power. It took 45 min. to recharge.
As a comparison, yesterday I traveled 2.2 miles with an average speed of 1.8 mph using 11% of battery at a slightly higher speed (2.2 mph) using 50% power and it took about 55 min to recharge.
1545-Went ashore to cut and split more firewood. Reset the trail cam on the big tree where I suspect an owl perches at night.

| Firewood Split and Drying In Sun |
Returned to the boat to set up the new shower (1st use), showered, and then put everything away. Took about half the time and effort. Should work well. A little tighter fit for getting in and out of the cabin but still it works well.
1715-Cooking dinner now. Grill blew out in the wind and I burned the buns while trying to deal with the grill! It worked out in the end. Had two burger sliders, chips, and a beer. 70F/64F
Did a walk through video of the site.

Wind built up out of the SW due to T-storms in the area. With the increase in wind and the cold water temps the air is quite chilly! Nevertheless, if rain doesn't come I plan to have another fire tonight.

2030-Sat in my shore perch and listened to my audio book then started the fire. Much cooler tonight with a NE breeze bringing cold air through the site. Water temp is in the 40's which serves as a great air conditioner but I need heat!
