The Great Grey Owl

I took these pictures of this great grey at my parents house.. only about 5 feet from their sundeck - very cool. He was hunting some smaller birdlings and stayed around for at least an hour.

Summer Fun

When we went to drop the kids off for their 2 week adventure with Grama and Papa, we met them in Barkerville. The kids thought it was very cool, though for them and the other neices/nephew - it might as well have been called Gophertown. They spent so much time trying to get a picture or a feel of these little guys. Who are very friendly and will actually eat right out of your hands. So they had a great time.
I have fond memories as well of the CANDY SHOP and got a snap of the kids in front with their suckers! It was a good time all in all. We spent 2 days in the town of Wells, BC which is just minutes from Barkerville. The kids went on to the Enchanted Forest, Crazy Creek, Miette Hot Springs & so much more..
Now they have a week to enjoy in Fort St. John and just hang out. We sure miss them but it's been a nice break for Collin and I. Today is our 8th Wedding Anniversary. WOW - hard to beleive that too. Things are great for us and we are looking forward to a lot more happy years together!
