It was a nice day, 🏊 did some swimming in the Speculator Beach and got seriously sunburnt. Yeah, I had sunscreen but I misplaced it. So my shoulders are super red. I did find it when I got back to camp. Honestly thought it wasn’t like I spent all day at the beach – all morning was working at the library Wi-Fi and the afternoon was down at the beach with my phone 📱 and the laptop. I hopped in the water occasionally but it’s not like I was swimming all day as I couldn’t miss client emails or calls. I did update the software on my work computer so the mobile internet is working but at camp I only have decent reception on my phone. 📶

After spending so much time in the sun ☀ today I’m tired and sore. While I gathered wood and have some camp garbage to burn I’m tired so I’ll skip the fire tonight fire tonight 🔥. It really doesn’t get dark until pretty late this time of year and it’s bright and sunny early on in the morning.
