We crammed in the plane and flew out to our special fishing hole last week. The kids caught tons of grayling on their little kid fishing poles.....it was so fun to see the reaction on their faces and hear Reid whooping and hollering about all the fish! Memories were made!!!

A recent camping trip with our friends', the Tomeo's.... After a really wet hike we made it back to camp in time for a double rainbow, a nice bike ride and smore's! We love camping!!!!

Don't know why this copied twice....but....These are two pike that lance caught on the way home from one of his jobs up north. He landed on a gravel bar and fished for a while hoping to get white fish but ended up with these Pike...they made a few tasty meals! here's to bringine home the bacon....in the form of a few fish!




We took a flight last week and landed at Swiss Lake cabin. This is where we spent three weeks this winter....it looks nothing at all like we left it because of all the green grass around there. Not to mention, the mice invaded since we left and now we have to go back and clean up the mess.....

The ducks, the hens, Big Mama looking over the fence as she does when she wants out to graze....and the baby quail we hatched in an incubator.....

The kids and I were at Yoga today when Gramps came home from the coffee shop and noticed Piper had a squirrel in a tree. When he took a closer look he realised it was a black bear. You can see how close it is to our house and shop......I didn't take a photo to show but the bear was about 15 feet from my sheep, chickens and ducks. We reported the kill as Defense of Life and Property so therefore have to turn in the skull and hide and dispose of the meat. I hate that the bear had to die but that's one less in the area that will threaten the livestock, Piper and the kids. We live in their territory but it's scary to have the ones that are interested enough to come that close to human activity......just another day at the Williams'.......

N9104D....finally on home turf. First time Lance has parked this girl on his own property.....a good feeling indeed! We still have a long way to go but progress is good.
