My big adventure
#23
RE: My big adventure
I have not been keeping up on this! Sorry, guys!

So, yesterday, I flew into town yesterday to get our insurance cards in order, and picked up some groceries while I was there. I also had the best poutine I've had at this small place near their computer store. I should do this more often. It's only $170 round trip, Canadian, and it costs me $50 in gas just to drive. It probably saves me a net 3 - 5 hours of travel time, which I think is worth the $120 difference.

Anyway, this is the little four-seater flew out in:

I was in the front seat on the way out. Here's a wide shot of the trees and lakes. That's pretty much all it is out here. Pine trees, some birch, and a lot of lakes.

Here's a frozen lake we flew over:

And here's us banking low over the trees on our approach on the way back:

It's not bad, all in all. It was smooth, and only about 35 minutes each way (way better than a 3+ hour drive). It's a bit loud, though, so I just put in some earbuds and listen to EDM the whole way.



I was going through my pictures last week, and realized I took these three days apart in September:

We went for a hike in early November.

The lake I can see from my back windows is actually a little stub of a much larger lake. Directly across from it is the Band Office. We went for a little walk on Sunday, and I took a picture of the back of the house from the Band Office. It's hard to see, but it's a white building that's mostly centered in the frame. On that picture, we're the left unit in the building. The two left-most windows are our's.

At around 3:50, the sun started disappearing behind the trees. Actual sunset that day was 4:33. The girls and I were having fun "skipping stones" on this frozen pond.

The sunsets I never watch because the sun sets before dinner time:

Last month, during the full moon, I went to take the trash out, and saw the moon over the lake. It wasn't as foggy as the picture is making it look. I just had a hard time getting a clear shot with my phone.
