Canal building commenced around seven in the morning.

 

 

 

The purpose of the canal was the creation of an island.

 

 

 

Digging of the pool began past eight. Akiva dug, Martin brought the reinforcement material.

 

 

 

Iris documented the days activities in her journal.

 

 

 

She drew and wrote in the morning light on a driftwood log by the bay.

 

 

 

After allowing them to admire it a bit, the rising tide lent its creative hand to Martin & Akiva’s stone ringed pool.

 

 

 

Back at camp, there was a chess tournament.

It is very difficult to get an action shot in chess.

I have never seen one.

 

 

 

This is our kitchen tent. We have our own spot on the bay with our own entrance, to the water.

It is just a bit over two kilometers from where the nearest car can drive.

There are no idling RVs, no cars driving, no speakers playing, no people walking by (usually), and there is no cell reception.
