Back home, I was beginning to worry. My father-in-law knew exactly where Rod had gone, and he knew almost to the minute when he’d return — if all went well. The ETA came and went. My mom-in-law took the kids, and I drove up to the airport to wait. Rod’s dad joined me. The weather was clear but cold and it was getting dark. The men at the airport assured us that the guys would be safe if they’d had to put down on a lake somewhere, but nothing sounded right to us. We filed a missing persons report and waited for Search and Rescue to respond.
Useless blather: Day 2-——————————————-You’re complaining about Lynn’s Notes? Don’t like ‘em, don’t read ‘em.-’Blather’? That’s an old one. Say you aren’t Antonin Scalia, by any chance?
It amazes me that, not just on this forum but on many others, someone who probably can’t draw a straight line with a ruler feels he or she has the right to make derogatory comments on the author’s work!

Well, at least they didn’t drown and aren’t suffering from hypothermia…

How did they start a fire. Isn’t everything either wet or went down with the canoe?

Just wait until they get into the poison ivy or poison oak!

Pickerel. So that’s what women in Canada call it.

At least they were able to get fire, must be very experienced woodsmen.

About the fire: Phil smokes, and probably had a lighter in his pocket. His cigarettes are probably soaked, though.

Judging from his comments here and on other comics he doesn’t seem to have anything nice to say about anything.

As others have said, why are you bothering to read it. It happens to be interesting to us.

Close guess. Actually, they’re just sitting around a campfire with their pickerels (pickles?) exposed.
