We Had Company!!!!

Our trapper friend Brian flew in today in his little Super Cub. Brian and his dog Pal were only able to say for an hour but he promised to stay the night the next time he is passing over. He brought us in some fresh vegetables. A big salad is planned for supper. Romaine Lettuce, Cauliflower, Red Peppers, Cucumber and Celery. It is heaven.
Bryan had gone out two days ago and made a strip with "Miss Piggy" our Super Wide track Scandic 800. The overflow is very bad on this lake. When you walk on the airport your foot leaves a indent and you can see the mush. A big Beaver would never be able to land .....Last year was different, there was a good 40" of good ice down there. But this year it is not great ice. We only take the skidoos along the edges of the lake or on the well packed crossing at the narrows.
It was really nice to have company. We were really looking forward to his visit. but when they leave you feel exhausted and just want to sit and read. No radio on, No conversation, just sit and read the newspaper that came in or a book.
