...Well I guess mother nature must have overheard us laughing in the tent because she got pissed.
The tail end of that front whipped us good and the time tested and proven design of the tee pee was put up against some pretty mean gusts.
Things were quiet in the tent that night. We all just laid awake and listened to the steady drum roll of ice pelting our shelter and wind trying to gain enough purchase to claim our tent and steal it away…then it happened.
First it was a little sniffle, then another and another. Someone cracked.
The tough fishing thus far, the unrelenting weather and being as far from home as one could seemingly be piled up and broke my little one.
I pulled his pad close to mine and he wrapped himself around me. I told him I felt the same way and if tomorrow wasn't a better day we would pack up and head down.
It was looking like this trip was about to end.
