G'Morning

Hi everyone!
Great day to fly and see some beautiful scenery. Same stuff here people up to the sites and down again with a side trip to Greens Creek mine for a much needed part. I don't think I'll be seeing any harry till I get back, but I think jack did and he's dying to tell us how it went. I think we're a book or two back on the series but I guess we should join the phenomena and see the end of Potter........

No pets to take care of, unless you want to adopt a mountain gopher for your garden. They look like giant squirrels and love to screech at you.

I'm still impressed by my new jacket. I would buy Mom one but she usually has all the latest gear..
Got to go

Love all,

DAD

Hi all..
It's me and the cats..... Not as perfect of a day today,... but work... is work. Very busy today... never ending...
I am off the next two days... hope to finish some project? Linda should be here on TUesday.. I am not sure what they want to do.... but we shall see...
Cloudy is cloudy and about to have dinner... oh yum!
Anyone read Harry Potter yet? Haven't seen the last movie... but I heard Jack has seen it.
I am very sleepy and Speck will not leave me alone.... he is lonely... needs some attention.
Miss you both!
Love,
mom

Absolutley gorgeous day today . flew with the doors off and it was fantastic. Mom you might have seen the email to Tighe about moving along with the Tree house. How exciting is that!! They said rain today and you couldn't have it better. Here's picture of picking up our geologists coming back after finding maybe a major piece of ore of some kind. This is fun sometime but I really miss you guys and I'm waiting to see you all again soon. Mom! wow 11 miles I'm impressed and hope you do great in your race (great=survive) Off to dinner. love to all thanks Jack for writing. We love to hear from you and how the movie is.

Love Dad

Hi

its Thursday and I might go see harry potter 5 to day with Kyler.I called kordell.I don't know what else to say but Hi to every one.

It's SUNNY!
I had a near perfect day... got up... ate bkft, drank coffee... no surprise there. Ran 11miles.. to the glacier.. it was HOT?! Looked @ plants and trees.. didn't buy anything. Went to costco.. they will take back my wine fridge! Home depot for a level.... can't find one here... anywhere? Now I have two new ones. A little rock shopping on the way home on the side of the road. Spent the afternoon in my wild jungle of plants... trimming and pulling weeds. Started the small patio out in front of the garage.. need more sand... I'll get some in the morning before work.
Removed the plastic from the veggies, tamed the lettuce.. picked lettuce and had a lovely salad for dinner. Cut some of my herbs.. I am going to try drying some and see what happens?
The tomatoe plants look great... no tomatoes yet?
Took a shower...very SMELLY...
Now I am off to sit and watch the tour de france... they are in the mountain stages. Then I will be off to the land of nod!
Hope everyone had a fabulous day!'
Love,
mom

Hello there family....surrounded by kitties.... they are happy... I am happy. Good to be home...it is mighty quiet here. I am still watching the tour every night. My big race is coming up fast, I leave to San Fransisco in 10days. I guess I am ready....? At least I am not hurt!
Everything is growing... waiting patiently for next garden spot.
I hope to talk to Jack someday.... I think I still have a son... I remember something about red hair.. getting taller... maybe he'll call me?
Hope all is well with the rest of the family... Mom and critters are well... including Cloudy.
:) Mom

Sat July 14th

Morning fog has kept us on the for most of the AM. Checked on a few things on the mountain in the PM . Shane got a face to face with a young bear in the brush, both parted ways unscathed.Biding our time till the drillers show (Tuesday) then its full speed ahead getting the equipement on the mountain and start making holes. Mom should be home today...and the critters will be happy. Don't forget about the snake!

Love DAd

Jack

Firiday the 13th and nothing terrible has happened...... Finished building the drill pad on the hillside today. The bugs have risen from 33 mile where we stay to the 3600' level where we worked. In fact we swatted bugs at both places!! got to shoot a 22 cal pistol at lunch with the pad guys , hit (grazed) an orange from 15 yards away after emptying 15 shots in its direction. Gang Banger I'm not. Weather started promising but returned to rain something I bet you both are not experiencing now in you prospective holiday venues. Quiet and pretty lonesome tonite as usual, maybe a MacGyver and to bed. Hope my loved ones are well..Love DAD

Hi All,

Rainy and windy. Flew around for just abit this morning. Saw some goats an the hill that so far have been very scarce to find. No real work done. We found the mystery pad under the snow today which gave us some exercise shoveling at least. Kind of a day off I suppose. Hope all is well. Jack see if you can post another thought on the blog. Thinking about you both

Love as ever,

DAD
