New Baby!!!
Isn't she the cutest? This is Danny and Jenny's new kitten, a buddy for Teak who hasn't been a happy kitty since they moved to their new place. I think it's because there were roomates at the other place and there was always someone home. Poor litte Teak was just terribly lonely (I hope, either that or he's just bad...) Last I heard Jen wanted to call this little girl Baby, in Taiwanese it sounds like bowbow and Dann didn't like it but it grows on you. Hopefully her name isn't something like Fluffy.
So, I don't know if you can see this weather report or not (not to mention the evil look on her face) but boy have we been getting the rain! A month ago the worry was the valley didn't have enough water, not so any longer. The south end of the island and the lower mainland were hit a lot worse than us, even broke a few rainfall records. The poor spawning salmon didn't have enough water to get up river a week ago and now they have been washed back down. Fisheries are worried that eggs may have been washed out too.
The good new this morning is that the sun is out and there is finally a skiff of snow on the mountains across from us. The glacier looks amazing! And! As you can see the trumpeters are back. This is just a young fellow but isn't he amazing. Our Ducks Unlimited field must have at least a thousand in it.
Looks like a good day to go out and take some picures, especially when the forecast is saying that we get today and tomorrow and then we are back into 3 days of heavy rain. Oh goody. You know it's bad weather when even your yellow lab looks at you like you're nuts when you say," Will, wanna go for a walk?"
We headed out to Chris and Darcee's on the weekend which was fun as always. It was the first time since the surgery that Jim had been out to someone's house. You are always worried that there won't be a chair he can ge
t into etc. etc. but it worked out fine. We wouldn't let him ride on the tractor though.
Cally seemed to thoroughly enjoy it.
Doesn't that look like fun? They were clearing and had a fire going up top.
Would have been fun to sit up there but you'll never guess what happened!
