Summer Update!

Summer has been very busy. We finished the roof on the house just after my parents arrived. Roger helped me with the whole roof and we were determined to finish it before he left. I think we had it completed 3 or 4 days after my parents arrived and then we went fishing, camping, and sight seeing for the rest of the two weeks.

Wrangell eating cherries.

Wrangell and Stryder in the morning.

Dad with his catch of the day. He whooped Roger and I while pike fishing... too bad he wasn't quite legal... but thats another story.

Old copper mine at Kennecot, AK.

Chakina river fire smoke plume near where we camped one night. Roger and I saw a grizz at the camp site and then everyone had trouble sleeping...except for Roger and I.

Smoke driving back from the mine. It seemed very dark in the smoke.

Don dip netting with us. He did the best... but we all did crummy that weekend and didnt catch many fish.

Our finished roof.

Roof insulation, stringers, and tin.
