The next day took me along the Connecticut river. It was sunny and comfortable. I camped at a cool private campground where I met Byron, the owner, and Chyrel. Byron gave me a pair of socks and a ski cap for keeps and Chyrel lent me a sleeping bag. It hit close to 3o that night so I was happy to get some help keeping warm in my tent. Just before sunset Byron took Chyrel and me out for a ride on his boat. Some guy at the site loaded me up with firewood gratis which I took to Chyrel's site that night. We drank tea and her dog Mikee, who growled something fierce at me at first, sat on my lap to keep me warm.
