This was my chance to repack. Now I had no choice.

         I could see with the cargo net in place, cargo boxes and miscellaneous items all still intact,
         though I was sure, wet or soaked.


         I actually passed the kayak by and looked downriver and walked a little forward looking for a
         campsite or a wide spot in the marsh or anything I could tell myself to stop.

                                  Then I saw ahead of me what had to be Wanagan.

         The Sun would set before I had made one trip with the upright kayak to what did turn out to be

         Wanagan and more campground than I really expected.

         Most of twilight I used having to take a great majority of the gear out of the kayak before up
         righting and reloading. Needless to say I didn’t carefully repack, I tossed it all in and took it to

         Wanagan to regroup and restart.
