In the middle of the night we woke up at different intervals, absolutely freezing. An unexpected cold front had blown in, dropping the temperature to the upper 40s. That was a 40 degree difference from the daytime. We were not at all prepared for that, since the weather was supposed to be in the 80s the entire time.
Huddling under every blanket and layering our clothes on top of our pajamas, we stayed around the fire ...hoping the clouds would blow away as quickly as they had come in. Midday we decided to call it quits and pack it up. The ranger station reported that the weather was going to hold until the next day (when we had to leave). We did not want to "suffer" through the cod, yet no one wanted to leave either. Sadly, we packed up.
The slide show of pictures is not in any particular order; it just reflects the time we had for those short 12 hours :o(

It was't you guys... this was not a good camping year with the weather we had. Considering the short time you had, it looks like you made the best of it! I am sure it will be an adventure your family will reflect upon as the years go by. Something about the challenging time that stand out in our memories.
i completely agree Mrs. Blanchard! :)
