Another rescue

This one wasn't really a rescue, it was just helping out a bunch of kayakers that were dog tired. The had just come down the river to the lake where we were camping and they had to paddle 6 miles across the lake to get back to their cars. They had just spent 3 days in the wilderness - 1 day hiking 12 miles with 100 pounds of gear and kayaks and 2 days kayaking down the river. They asked if we would be willing to tow them to the other end of the lake. Always ready for an adventure, Jim said yes right away. All but one of the kayakers made the trip in their kayaks. One road with Jim, Marty and the kids. The kayakers paid Jim in Whiskey!

The funny part is the Daisy Mae HATES kayakers! She was ready to chew off their limbs while they were getting tied up. I had to put on her collar and hold her. She always freaks out when she sees them come down the river and was not pleased they were in our camp. It was literally the meanest I have ever seen her.
