ST,
I won't deny that, over the years, many of my flamingo camps might well be described as... "interesting."
Perhaps the most interesting camp I was party to wasn't even really MY camp. Rather, it was set up on Suzanette Lake by Yellowbird, Old Salt, Kingfisher & others (I think Intrepid Camper may have joined us there, too) as the primary site for "Jimboree 2006." Anyway, to keep the number in any one camp under the max of 9, I was camped nearby with an associated group. When we rounded the peninsula to approach their camp, it was truly a sight to behold... a mostly pink sight! Pink buoys, pink flags, strands of pink ornaments, pink flamingos everywhere, pink whirl-a-gigs that twisted in the wind, pink presents for everyone (including homemade pink flamingo Northern pike fishing lures), pink goblets, pink blow-up dolls & creatures, pink hats, pink shirts, and, of course, a huge bubbling lava-like vat of pink stew for supper (which, contrary to speculation, did NOT require pink Pepto Bismol afterward).
Now THAT camp was "interesting."
Today's POD reflects a rather tame camp, in comparison. I believe the pic was taken in late September, not far from Sue Falls, but I could be wrong.
By the way, QJers travelling the northern tier of Quetico lakes from July 14th through 27th this year are welcomed to stop by at any campsite where they see some kind of "interesting" pink sign. It's most likely my camp, especially if there are two solo canoes nearby. Also, if you plan to travel the area during that time frame, feel free to shoot me a note and maybe we can plan to hook-up somewhere.
Later,
Jimbo
