Killarney Adventure
We decided to go up north to Killarney for a few days in the end of August, and I brought along Willie, Winston, and the entire Whispering Grass gang. I didn't have any specific storyline in mind., just to 'go with the flow', and let inspiration be my guide
the First Sunset
It was the first night up at Kilarney, and Kitty Fox was looking forward to the first sunset...
Willie wanted to watch too....
So everyone came over to watch the sun go down.
It wasn't all that spectacular, but it was more about the experience anyways....

Meal Time
The next day, with their camp set up on the edge of the woods, everyone sat down for a meal...
"This is going to be a fun adventure!"
The table was set with all kinds of goodies...
...a few more pictures....
Moving On
Next morning, everyone was busy helping take down their camp, getting ready to move on. Winston had been scouting on ahead, and had found the perfect spot to set up their next campsite. Time to pack everything up and move on....
Winston picked up one of the boats, and raised it over his head......
"Make sure everything is tied down securely..."
Winston started on his way....
the Portage
The little troupe of adventurers packed up everything and headed off to find a new camp spot...
Willie led the way....while Rhett Fox pulled the small cart....
Smuzhka Raccoon pulled the big cart....while some mice carried oars.....
Winston carried the second boat over his head....
...and Mr. Ropuha dragged his cooler......while someone hitched a ride....
...and Kitty followed in the rear...
Going for a Swim
After that heavy slog through the woods, all the ladies decided they needed some freshening up, so they went looking for a good spot for a swim....
"Look's a good spot over there!"
"Okay, let's go..."
So off they went....
Then, to give them some privacy, I put my camera down.
'That was so refreshing!!"
'That was so refreshing!!"
Into the Night
The little caravan of adventurers continued on their journey as the sun was going down....
Everyone was getting very tired....
"It's just a little further...."

"We are almost there...."
The sun sank below the distant horizon, and it was getting darker...
It was time to get out all the lanterns....
It was time to get out all the lanterns....
"Not much further now. And there will be just enough light left to set up camp..."
