Day 28- April 17- Manon Fournier

What a wonderful weekend! It was mild and sunny on Friday so we packed and left that evening for Short Lake. The crew included, Nancy, Mark, Imaapik, Stephanie, Manon and Gary. Daniel and Annie were also going there too but they were much faster than us and we only pretty much saw them once on the road.


Saturday was nice, mild but not too melty. Annie was out fishing much before anyone else and was a fish catching MACHINE! I think she jigged 16 fish that day alone, and more on Sunday! Everyone else was on the lake by 9 or so and Mark took Imaapik around the lake to hunt ptarmigan, which are all over the mountains these days.


Manon is my photo of the day, she caught a nice big charr and stopped for a picture between catches. She is a French primary teacher at the school. She's been up north for a long time, maybe approaching 9-10 years. I have always liked Manon, she's positive, friendly, fun and very kind. She's a great singer for RockBand nights and loves to dance at parties as well. I'm glad that I've had more chances this year to go camping with her and her man, Gary. It's been great getting to know her more as a result.
