New Scenery

Making the big move north soon. I'll have to see this every day. At least when the clouds aren't obscuring.

Hola!

It's been six months but the Fullcurl of Life is still hanging on. I've got a couple free hours so I'm going through pics. Standby. This one is hot off the presses.

Pumpkins

Autumn and Cedar each scored a free pumpkin at the fall harvest festival.

Mixed bag

Doe season starts October 15th here. It is a perfect opportunity to take the kids out hunting. I used the guise of "Youth Hunter Appreciation Day" to get out of some potential weekend work duties, having promised the kids I would take them out. Autumn got Saturday and Cedar Sunday. Each a full day of uninterrupted Daddy time. The evolution of their hunting is happening already. Autumn passed up opportunities for does because she wanted us to get a buck. We came home empty handed that day, but she did great, at one point sitting still and quiet for over an hour as we tried to call in a buck. The next day was Cedar's turn. It was pouring rain but we gamely prowled the woods for several hours. Passing on several does that were accompanied by fawns because Cedar didn't "want the babies to be alone." We eventually found a dry doe. A grouse along the way made for a fun mixed bag day.

My Favorite Salmon is Pink

Fun day at the river chasing our most under-rated salmon. Pink salmon are actually pretty tasty if fresh from the ocean like this one is. Cedar reeled this one in. Hopefully Autumn will get a hero shot soon too. She's fishing independently now and had several hook-ups today all by herself, but couldn't land one. I'm excited the girls are so into it and think I have a couple good fishing partners.

Summer Fun

New batch of pics loaded to flickr. 

Fourth of July fun, camping, fishing and more! (oh and 1 month to go for sheep hunting!)
