Dear Journal,
On our journey so far we've celebrated 3 birthdays, mine and Sam's. Well it's time to make the 3 people because today is Chris Platt's birthday! Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Chris, happy birthday to you :]
It was perfect weather today! Woke up at 6 to find that the sun was shining with not a cloud in sight. What could be better? We met Clark who realized that he was 6 miles ahead of the boats we met up with him today. Haha! On the bright side he came with two deer and a bear that Chris helped him find, looks like we are going to be feasting tonight! The boats came to a narrow channel between two sandbars, where we all had to lift the keelboat 8" to get it over. This gave us a little delay. It was hard work and made us very tired and sore. That night though we ate the animal the Clark brought for everyone and they were DELICIOUS! Chris ate so much of the food though and we all got kinda annoyed, but it was his birthday so we didn't do anything about it he deserved everything.
Chris seemed to have a great birthday which made us all happy. We sang to him before we ate as he made us all laugh with his incredible dancing skills. Oh Chris what would we do without you! Happy birthday once again to him :]
