Willow is MAD!

Today we took Lucy and Stratus and hike up Red Lodge Mountain. One of the best thing about pre-season is that the dogs get to go with us to mountain. Willow and Walla stayed home and neither is very happy about it. This was Stratus's first ski trip. He seems to have difficultly controlling his speed and direction. He ran into me twice.

Indian Summer

You can always tell when Kim is super busy at school because she doesn't take time to post for me. Since the big snow the weather has gotten really nice again. Bryan was able to stain the Red Lodge fence last week. It must have been a big project because he was covered in stain. Yesterday, Lucy and Bryan and I climbed Red Lodge Mountain. Bryan was trying out his new ski boots and his old ankle. I guess the ankle did okay, he was only limping a little at the end. Kim, Walla, and Stratus all stayed home. Stratus has been sick. He had pneumonia, which could have been really serious. Dr. Mark thinks we caught it early enough but he is still suppose to take it easy for a couple more weeks.

Almost Snowed In

This is a picture of Kim's van and the car, which we had to leave in Red Lodge.
Bryan worked on digging out for a couple hours. A nice neighbor came by with his plow and cleared a path. But we were still stuck so he pulled the truck out. At one point we thought Kim was going to have to get a sub. When we finally got to Billings, we didn't have any electricity. It seemed like we were camping because Bryan lit the Coleman lantern and Kim put candles all over.

4 Feet High and Rising

How high's the snow, Mama? She said it four feet high and rising. It actually snowed some much in Red Lodge that we couldn't get out of town to go run the sled.

This picture was taken early Saturday and that was just the beginning.

Busy, Busy Fall

As you can tell from my lack of post, Kim has been super busy and super sick. Starting on her 40th b-day and for about two weeks she was very sick. She seems to be better now but is still playing caught up. A week ago we went camping for the first time this season. It was a good trip. Fall has come to Red Lodge but we are still getting in some fall hikes on the tundra. As you can see the leaves are all changing colors. The sled dogs are getting excited for winter. I on the other hand am not a sled dog.
