It started raining around 4 am this morning. I was up by 5 am and started packing. Unfortunately, I had to pack the tent wet, so when I get a chance, I need to dry it out. I was out of the park by 6:30 am and headed to Ash-ka-nam resort in Orr, Minnesota. It was 10 and 1/2 hours of driving, mostly through a rain storm in North Dakota. There were a couple of white knuckle moments on the interstate with truckers but it all worked out OK.
When I got to Ash-ka-nam, they had no record of my reservation. I have no reservation confirmation but I do have correspondence with “Mindy” at the place asking her to give me a call to give her a credit card number. I then completed that section on my spread sheet so that means she called and I gave her the number.
In any case, it worked out. I was scheduled to be in the motel unit but they have placed me in the “condo”. It has a kitchen, two bed rooms and a bath with living room and, horrors, a television. Unfortunately, it has no smoke detectors or sprinklers and it is made completely of wood.
Apparently, all their staff has quit except for the restaurant and fishing excursions since no beds were made. I found Ashley, who works at the bar, and she provided me sheets, towels, soap and shower curtain. I made my own bed, installed the shower curtain, and then realized the place had no toilet paper.

Instead of bothering them again, I decided to use my stash in the jeep. As I was getting to the correct container for the tp, Lucas approached me and asked if he could help. He mostly cleans fish for the fishermen but kindly agreed to go get me some toilet paper.
At least the fishermen are having luck. Lucas told me he cleaned a lot of fish today. It is rainy, cold, and probably perfect walleye weather. He said they were mostly catching them on jigs. My luck with walleye has been with spoons, and he said they were catching some on spoons also. Maybe I should have used jigs when I was up in the Boundary Waters years ago.
Dinner tonight was at the Ash-ka-nam bar and grill. I decided to have two stiff bourbons and a Philly Cheese Steak sandwich with fries – grease is good.
Since I got up so early, I’ll turn in early tonight. The good news is the visitor center and hiking trails are just a few miles down the road.
