Long weekend day trips, skidoo rides and camping fun...


The plane arriving on Friday afternoon. April was excited since Trevor was coming home after being away a week.



This shot is looking south on the George River just out of the mouth of the harbour/beach end of town. As you can see the river doesn't completely freeze up!



Playing around with the mirror shot, I also discovered that while wearing my BV2S helmet i can listen to iPod much more easily while driving around. Kind of look funny as I bob my head while driving, think the people in town must think I was kind of crazy as I drove past them! Ha ha ha!



Sunny day on the George... (However, FREEZING= minus 30 windchill that day!)

Daniel's tent pictured first and Mark and Nancy's tent pictured second. My camping homes from this winter.



I stayed at the tent for a bit while the others went fishing and setting nets. I was respoinsible for babysitting, and instead of getting Imaapik to go down for his nap, I was making him so hyper taking silly pictures and tickling him. This one was SOOOOOO cute though, I love it!!!(Imaapik is Mark and Nancy's youngest and only son, he was born in July JUST before I came up north so I always ask his age to find out how many years I lived up here.)



We left on Sunday from town, slept on very warm night in Daniel's tent and then drove home on an incredibly mild day Monday. This was Krystal's first time at Short Lake and camping up North. The second shot was a VERY tricky one to get... I should've been wearing snowshoes, as I walked in behind a tree to take this picture without her seeing, so it could look very natural- drinking tea and enjoying the beauty... BUT I fell through a weak layer of the snow and was buried up to my waist. I hadn't been wearing my mitts because I was coming back from the loo... I think the shot was worth the trouble though...



Packing up to go home, here is Mark and Heather by the Yamaha VK Pro.



I climbed the hill behind school on Saturday afternoon on my skidoo. I like the vantage point you get on the town, however you can see the bad weather coming in... I didn't really notice it until I saw these pictures... Oh well, it was a beauty day for most of it!



This is my current home sweet home!
