Magone (Magoon) Lake...

We're here... first camping trip of the summer. Yes, Kylee's rain coat and the boots were necessities on this trip.

This "one" pair of binoculars were a big hit for the explorers.
The awesome sandy swimming hole was quickly renamed Treasure Island.

We traded in our 4-wheeler for this wonderful army green, Old Town canoe. We are ready for the lakes and some short river trips... YEAH!

We did have a few bites of Brook Trout and Rainbow Trout cooked over the campfire.

We spied lots of animals including this muskrat and family of ducks. A deer visited our camp and Tony got up close and personal with a beaver.



Gracie and Kylee hung out on the fishing deck to watch the great fishermen and girls.
What you can't see here is Amy aka. The Grumpy Old Troll at the other end of the bridge. Those of you lucky enough to be familiar with Dora are aware of that character that Amy graciously played. She was an expert riddle maker and the girls managed to solve them in order to continue on their journey.



A short dip in the chilly water.

Cuddling and shivering on the beach.
A little help please.
Magone Lake will definitely be a family favorite.
