Idaho Peak – the sequel
Today – ah yes – today was the day for Plan A. Yes, you guessed right – Plan B was in effect, even though we had not officially made a Pan B. It went like this – Peter picked me … Continue reading

Bird
Our bird died. In this case, I think it’s best to start at the end and work my way back to the beginning. Simon came home yesterday with a Northern Flicker – a juvenile that fell from the nest and was … Continue reading

Record Mountain and Mount Kirkup
I think that today’s Plan B actually turned out better than Plan A. “A” was the 7 Summits Trail end to end. “B” involved Rick and I driving to the Old Glory trailhead early this morning and taking on a … Continue reading
