Day 8: Mira Provincial Park
A nice spacious and private campground...
we're starting to like the provincial parks much better than the overcrowded national ones!
Oh no, not another family reunion next to us...
and they look like the rowdy partying types too! *grin*
A patriotic camping squirrel looking for its beer.
The squirrel planning its pine cone bombardment of our camp later on.
A geocache in the park... can you see the very well camouflaged film canister?
Hint: it's wrapped in birch bark.
Rubby has a hitchhiker.
We didn't want any visitors so we posted a sign.

It's sleepytime! Grandma ensures Sammy gets her afternoon nap.
These hardy Cape Breton ducks lay rocks instead of eggs.
Where could that cache be?
After the pool party and birthday celebrations, Murielle relaxes back at camp in front of the roaring campfire that Bryan made.
What, you don't expect us to build a real camp fire, do you?!
