maiden hair ferns and orange - colored fungi & lichens - moss-covered rocks
& tree-trunks &c.&c. The view is simply lovely - way up
"Johnny Mack" to "Dug" up Indian - &
one can trace the
Jessup. It's near enough to see boats & details & things too.
After I took its picture we sat a long time. Watching the Changing clouds
& mist & saw a storm - a shower - gathered - over behind
Snowy - come down over Lewey Lake & pass across the
upper Jessup's & bury Dug & the mountains to the
East Finally we came down & told
Bob
about it. After dinner we went to row - but it was still rather
rough & we didn't stay out so very long. Had a nice camp fire - all our
pet jokes & stories - and when the Abbotts were alone with
us we roasted my marsh mallows. Afterward
Becky Barnum & Peggy Pitkin came too.
Aug. 14 Friday
Warm & fine today. And we had a camp picnic (in the launch) up
Jessup -
Alfred Abbot, Julia
& Helen
, and Mr. Pitkin,
Margaret
& Elizabeth
, went up Snowy
instead (The Abbots in bathing skirts &c!) Fan staid
home & so did Mrs. Pitkin. Most everyone else went. Sat
next to
Miss Laurie going up. She's real nice & funny too. The
Jessup was lovely but not so lovely as before. We landed just
above the second stumps island (it was so shallow)
