Fall Is Really Here!

This paw print was in the mud along the driveway.We had a good trip to Vancouver a couple of weeks ago and found Rachael a winter vehicle. He still isn't named so any ideas welcome.

The new 'Garage in a Box' for the tractor.


We took a walk up the mountain behind the house - here is the view of the Valley and the River.


It was the first hiking trip since Oscar was attaked by the Cougar about three weeks ago. The vet said that looking at his injuries he was jumped on from behind and that BoJangles probably came back to scare it off. Cougars, also known as Mountain Lions, can weigh anything between 150-250 lbs (68-115kg).

He had some nasty open wounds which we had to bathe and he had some antibiotics - we think he was mostly upset by having to wear the plastic cone collar. He was very lucky.


Beautiful colours in the sunshine.


The view from the kitchen window this morning.


And just for fun...... here is the house this time last year, yep just the subfloor nothing else!
