Sitting in Butcher Bay the Kadizzles just finished their baptism. The water is cool, but being clean on a sunny day with birthday suits freshly pressed is hard to beat. Sovereign is sitting in a very unusual spot. As near as the Captain can tell it is the only spot on the huge lake were you can be beached on the south of a beach, and walk north 200 feet and be back in the main lake. Yesterday we were at a similar place but it was back in a bay.
Yesterday we hiked all over the area around Fossil Bay. Looking at the picture on the upper right you will notice a large rock by the boat. The rock has the shape of a huge tree, and a very strange fossilized pattern. The pattern looks like some ancient tree bark. If indeed it is a tree it was one of the largest every on Earth. On the other hand perhaps it was the skin of some incredibly large animal. Today we revisited an old steamer trunk that may have served as a coffin for a child, or has some other significant meaning. It is burried on a high bluff over looking the lake. Yesterday we visited an Indian cemetery on the North side. Besides a couple of people named Plenty Wise there were two graves of infants that mush have died at birth. Indian graves are interesting. Relatives and friends left the children a water bottle, toys, and other items a baby might need.
