Fish and Firewood ...

August 23, 2014
Well ... Mike and I decided to go out fishing again ... just for the morning ...
the water was a little rough ...
but we were able to catch out limit ...
leaving for home just after noon ...
It was a great morning ... !!!
(This batch was also was processed in the smoker)

We had received a phone call from Larry ...
offering to take us on his woodlot ...
to cut up a slash pile for firewood ...
So off we went in old Blue and hauling the trailer ...
Larry was on his quad leading the way ...
driving 3 km back and up into the mountain ...
to the pile of logs ...
What a beautiful area and view ... !
Mike wanted to turn the truck around and back in closer to the pile ...
when all of a sudden we heard ...
ssssssssssssssss
Oh no ... we had a flat tire ... and no spare ... !!!

The guys started to buck up the wood ... and I loaded it into the trailer ...
then as time was starting to pass us by ...
Larry and Mike left on the quad to go and pick up a spare tire at the house ...
and I stayed out in the wilderness ...
cutting and loading logs ...
The guys came back after an hour with a tire ...
and changed the flat ...
we then continued with the wood until we had a full load ...
It was quite an adventure out in the back woods ...
A beautiful area amongst lots of cedars ... birch ... fir ... pine and tamarack trees ... !!!
