New work @ the Captain Cook

Home made heat

It cost too much to buy and send a small wood burner to us, so I'm working on building one. One sheet of metal, metal snips,some hammer power and a little ingenuity gets you a homemade stove. It's a work in progress but by summer time I hope to have it worked out.

35 weeks

Last post 30 weeks, this post 35 weeks...quite a difference in belly size!  This scares me because I have 5 weeks to go until the due date, not sure if this body can keep up with the growing girl inside!  The body is an amazing thing though.

30 weeks

Pat and I attended our first childbirth class last night.  He did great, just slight kicking and screaming on the way there, had to buy him dinner before hand too. 

Confusement

First weekend not at the cabin for quite-a-while (almost 5 months). Having some difficulty adjusting to intercity life.

Things I miss:

1. Packing heat

2. The big dipper

3. The outhouse

4. My slingshot and a 2 pockets full of rocks

5. Dirt

6. Fire

7. Moose at the front door

8. Silence

Closing up

We decided it was time to close up for the year, 27 degrees in the morning and snow on the way home made us feel we made the right decision. Joe and Carlee came down for some hunting and berry picking. We got into a bunch of grouse and hares and Joe was able to connect on a few. The potato experiment was somewhat successful, we ended up with more than we put in the ground and have a better idea for next year. Lots of animals seen while down, many looked like they were heading south.
