Susan arrives at my house ~ where should we go??
We decide to hop on the ferry and see if we can catch up with Joni and Mona at Third Beach! They don't know we're coming, but we'll see if we can surprise them.
Oh. my. gosh. This pack is heavy. Especially with that bear barrel thingy we rented at the Ranger Station.
An hour later after rearranging and rearranging my pack, stabilizing the heavy load.... Ready to go!
FULL pack. This is a comfort backpack, we don't scrimp.
Here we are at the trailhead!
Such a pretty trail through the woods.
I don't know what i'm doing here.

We think we see Mona and Joni!!
Yes, it's them!! This is too funny! SURPRISE!
They are happy to see us.
We have to make our way through the piles of wood on the beach.
Surfer in the water. Brr..

Paintbrush on the beach. I did not know Paintbrush grew here on the beach.
Mona and I enjoy the wine I carried in.
We make a yummy feast!
Joni, Mona, and Susan.

I brought this to make Susan laugh, I swear. I do not carry the old eyelash curler on the backpacking trips.
