His skin was bought to succumb to the sun at any moment. My skin loves the sun his does not. I get so much sadder so much easier during the winter months. I love the damn sun.

    As a 12 year old in summer of 1968, I canoed a portion of this with a group from a summer camp program out of Flint, Michigan. Three counselors/guides and nine 12 year old city kids. It was an adventure. The plan was some sort of loop, as I recall, however the difficulty had us traveling from Ranger Lake north and then after three days and a minor medical issue with one of the other boys on the trip, we backtracked to Ranger Lake. I recall a very long and difficult portage some where along the route. The return across Ranger Lake to a campsite where we parked our vehicles was late in the evening and in rain. In the dark I picked the wrong spot to set up my tent and awoke in two inches of water.
