Last day at Killbear Park. We slept in until 10:15 a.m.and woke up to another beautiful day. I paused for a few minutes in the midst of the fragrant Milkweed plants and the other flowers on my way back from the comfort station. It was so peaceful.
The colours were vibrant in the sunshine.
There were even raspberries ready for the picking. This place had it all.
I was pleased to find that my " kamikaze toad" from the night before had survived unscathed and was happily hopping along in the leaves. (yeah, OK it could be a totally different toad, but hey, leave me my with my illusions).
After breakfast we began to pack up camp. As we were taking down the dining tent we came across this huge tent caterpillar. This guy was not lacking for food. It was as fat as one of my fingers!
So I carefully moved him over to a little beech tree where he could continue to eat and get even fatter.
By 1 pm we were all packed up but we didn't have to be off the site until 2 pm so we decided to make one last trip down to our private beach.
We took our foldout chairs with us and sat by the waters edge. It was so peaceful with the water lapping at the shore and the rocks.
We would have liked to have stayed longer but 2 pm rolled around too quickly and soon it was time to go. We timed it just right though. Our quiet little area would have become a little less peaceful because just as we were pulling away in the car some new campers were pulling into the site next to us. We really enjoyed staying at this provincial park and now that we know how close it is we will be sure to be back.
