Little Mia

Had a great unexpected visit with Mia(above) and her family from Medicine Hat. It was so great to see them all. She loved D and he loved her too. Mia is so smart and adorable, come for more visits Mia!

Summer Injury

Here is the face only a mother could love, right now. D with a broken nose. You cannot see the middle of the nose due to swelling. He is pretty bruised now. He is in good spirits and has been back on the field hitting balls and catching grounders. It will take 4 weeks for this to heal fully.

Summer Photos

So I have this new camera,and I don't take anything but photos of baseball with it. And I dont' want to bore everyone with baseball photos all the time, so I wondered what photos to blog this week? Well believe it or not I found a good photo for the "beetle" fans out there. Here is a nice little summer project to add to your freshly painted houses maybe????

Happy Birthday To Me

Well it is my birthday! 40 this year. I love it. And on a good note- 15 more years till I qualify for a seniors discount. What a good day today will be.

July Long - Part Two

Here is the expensive ($170/night) boutique inn the team stayed at. It was so lovely! However with the flooding going on, those two trees close together, were half under water. The staff at the hotel make these banners to welcome guests during their stay. A very nice touch!
Dawson and a teammate got in some fishin at the inn. Dawson got 2 fish- a squaw and a cut throat trout.

Feeding the colt on the property was exciting. The colt was so friendly.

Now your probably wondering where the baseball photos are, right? We did go to Kamloops for baseball. Well it wasn't a good weekend in that department. We came in last place in the tournament. Sorry no photos. There wasn't many action shots to post. Maybe this weekend?

Wildlife - July Long- Part one

D finally got to see a bear. This guy was spotted by Perdon Lake, BC.

As we drove through Jasper Park, we saw many of these beautiful elk with their fuzzy antlers.

We must have seen at least 75 of these Mountain Sheep. Here is a young one. They had many young sheep in the group. They were so cute. (However their parents need to teach them not to stand in the middle of the road.)
