Thursday - 7/25

Woke to rain. It rained all night and shows no signs of letting up. Folks congregate under the tent a lot and we did not build a fire for coffee water but rather did all cooking on the stove. Had Red River cereal for breakfast. This is famous stuff in Canada, a sort of creme of wheat on steroids.  Very filling.
We moved a little slower this morning and got a later start than usual.
  It's a beautiful morning on the river as we paddle through a steady warm rain. Mists and clouds make their own beauty on the landscape, different but no less pleasing to the soul than a sunny day.
After some hours of this we come to a place called Ancient Voices which is a kind of Wilderness Lodge where we have decided to spend the night in relative comfort. Cabins are $25 per person and a sauna and hot shower $10 Canadian. Its a pretty little spot with rustic cabins spread around a meadow.
