We don’t usually get up too early while camping.. 7am seems to be the perfect time.. Of course camping in the mountains this time of the year is a bit COLD at night! Like FREEZING! Heater is running all night! Daytime is gorgeous, like about 65 to 72 or so.. Medicine Lake is about 6500 feet..
This is our second day here… aww and it is gorgeous.. We met our neighbors Gina & Patrick.. Gina is retired school teacher from Sonoma County and Patrick is a wine maker.. Both are serious kayakers.. We ran out of eggs.. no stores for more than 50 miles…We were very grateful to them.. … They were kind enough to leave us their 6 eggs as well as some left over ice, they were heading out for Tule Lake.. Our ice maker seems to be on the FRITZ! It’s a camping ice maker, Mr. Freeze.. got fried earlier this year when we were at Hereford Ranch when they were having power problems and got a big power serge.. fried.. well not working right at all! As the day progressed we decided to take our kayaks out.. We started paddling across the lake down by the boat launch.. we noticed that people were catching the trout like crazy! Every cast! OMG how does that happen?? We hurried and paddled back to camp so we could go fishing..
We got our poles, and gear and drove over to the boat ramp so we could fish.. We weren’t out here for an hour and we both limited!! OMG it was crazy! Every cast nearly there was a bite or fish on! Some we let some go and some got off, but mostly they stayed on!! Incredible day fishing! These kind of days are not a regular happening!!
So really today, we did about 2 or 3 miles kayaking, we did a 2 mile walk with dogs to “Little Medicine Lake” and caught our limits of fish.. Perfect day! Dinner was Chicken Faitias, refried beans (homemade) and some pumpkin bread for dessert.. Perfect day!!
