2016-07-29 Shelter Cove with Tyler and Luke

For this trip my crew was 12 year old grandson Tyler and his friend Luke.

Destination was Shelter Cove, a USFS dock in Carroll Inlet, about 25 miles from town.
There is a logging road there and a small lake about a mile and a half up the road.
It's a neat place to visit.

We pulled out about 1:15 PM and pulled into the USFS dock there at about 4:15 PM.
No one else was there so we had it to ourselves, which is nice.

This trip was all about letting the kids have safe outdoor fun.

I'll let the photos tell most of the story.

Saw this yacht on our way out

Tyler loves my old .22 rifle

Those cans never had a chance
Luke tries his hand with the .22 rifle



Luke and Tyler had fun in the raft


The kids had fun with the fire pit


The boys setting up the tent


I gave the boys the choice of sleeping on board or setting up the tent and sleeping out on the dock. 
They chose the tent.

And of course dock fishing is always popular ..





We got a small Pink while on the way home
From all the smiles I'm pretty sure the kids had a great time.

We were back in the slip at about 7:30 PM.
