Tea and Sympathy


Good gravy, opening weekend was brutal out on Medicine Lake. Saturday morning I showed up, eventually got the heater going and tried to boil water for tea (no luck). So I commenced sitting and eating snacks while brave souls came and went throughout the day. Our shanty was only half stuffed(see previous post) so I decided for opening weekend it was the Misfit Vista Shanty: a stuffed animal/clear plastic hybrid of our favorite sunny shanty from last year, The Vista Shanty. We used the same plasic that the Vista folks used last year so it was great to have them darken our door on opening day to compare notes on the wonders of brittle plastic sheeting in high winds.
