Went for our daily walk this morning and on a whim we took our new phone with us. For two reasons really... first because it's Easter and someone might call and second because the installer told us that it had a wonderful long distance range, so we thought we might put it to the test. And surprise, surprise.... down by the lake we are interrupted by a BRRRRING!
Good thing I took the pictures of the Eagle before the first ring......
Spring is springing.... you can see the buds swelling on the tree! |
So here we are in the middle of the wilderness sharing Easter wishes with family... by phone.... outside.... walking on hard pack snow, watching the eagles fly away, in the bright spring sunshine! Talk about surreal.
Dick talking to family on the new phone.... that is our house behind him. |
In the course of our conversation we learn that the family is working in the garden, they planted the peas two weeks ago and are getting the plot ready for more.... obviously they don't live in the Bowron. I'm afraid our pea seeds will have to wait a little longer!! Although the snow is going down by leaps and bounds, water is running daily, bare spots are cropping up and the road is getting muddy... we still have a ways to go yet.
Bare ground!!! even though it is still fenced in with snowbanks! |
