The rain is coming down in nice diagonal sheets today, meaning the Visitor Center is swelling with soon-to-be-Queen-passengers, huddling around the bookshelves in their shiny dripping rain gear. Today's a big day, in terms of boats - the Ranger's finally coming in! After its engine mishap last Tuesday, when it had to cancel its trip and we had to scamper around making sure everyone knew how to get here, get back, get their boats home, etc., it will be nice to see that big lady pulling into the dock today. It's bringing us several shipments of various things (GROCERIES, most importantly; I am pretty sick of eating spaghetti for every meal, lemme tell you), so wish us luck in getting that all sorted out...
For any wildflower fans out there, there's an amazing patch of pink lady-slippers right outside of Lane Cove: dozens of them, clustered along the trail. Take a hike up there and check it out. There's also several gorgeous yellow lady-slippers over at Daisy Farm.
Next week marks the official First Week of Interp Programs in Snug Harbor - I feel like we should be making commemorative mugs or something. We'll be doing harbor walks every day except Wednesday (when we all convene in Windigo for a happy customs training/interp reunion!), and Wanda Naylor will be leading a couple of traditional evening campfire programs. Everyone's welcome to come check out the programs, but beware: the audiences this coming week are our guinea pig audiences, and we might flock you for constructive criticism after.
I hope everybody's staying reasonably warm and dry (which most of us probably aren't - oh well) - and at the very least having an awesome time.
Until next week,
Liz
