Lake Kipawa, Quebec - 9/17/25

Trip Day 6 - Wednesday

0700-Clear, calm, fog over the water. 57F/50F. Coffee is on!

0845-Bible study is finished. My verse for today is: "For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse." (Rom 1:20)

0930-Prayer and reading time completed. Time to make breakfast and get ready to depart.

1050-Took a while to load all the firewood, chair, tripod, chainsaw, ax, and fire pit. Then I had to set up 3 cameras before I could depart.

1330-Arrived at the new islet in an unnamed bay. I used a dead stump in the water for my starboard tie. Traveled 7.6 miles. Another beautiful fall day!

Different Perspective

Further confirmed that many reefs are not on the chart. It happened three times on this leg.

I was able to fly the drone in the canyon on the way out but there was lots of work to do it successfully. I had low battery warnings on both landings!

1430-Dishes are up next. But I will take some relax time first and have a cold glass of white wine as first priority.

1530-Took photos of the site, then did dishes. Grilled chicken is on the menu for dinner.

1930-Started the fire and experimented making a call to Kelly using my phone (VOIP, Google Voice). Had to change some settings on my phone to make it work using Starlink.

2150-Came in from the fire. Stars are out bright tonight and have been for a couple of nights.

Another Great Evening Fire

Lightening observed to the north. I checked radar but it will pass to the north and should not rain here. Time for bed.
