Day 7 - Saturday, August 12

About two hours later and half way down Spectacle Lake we stop for lunch at a very nice cooking shelter. There is a ranger cabin across the lake and a couple of campsites adjacent to the shelter. People use this shelter to document in various ways that they have been there and done the circuit. I don't know why I didn't take a picture but see small carved paddles dangling from the rafters with names and dates; a scout troop from Sisters, OR actually brought a wood plank with all their names and the date they passed this point; many others simply wrote their names and the date; and still others carved their info into the timbers; folks who had done the circuit multiple times simply added another date to their original entry. We take the opportunity, while Merlin and Cheryl prepare lunch, to lay on the beach in the sun for just a few minutes as the sun ducks in and out behind the clouds. Soon we are back on the lake. We've still got a few hours of paddling to get to our next, and final night's campsite.
