Wall Tenting IT

Soon we will be staying out on the trail in a wall tent at night surrounded by an electric fence. We are 5 km out from our cabin and it takes an hour and a half each way to get there by quad. I started getting camp food ready. These are meat balls you cook in the oven for 15 minutes than can in gravy. So nice to have supper ready quickly and no fresh meat left in camp while we are away making new trail. The other jars are moose meat that was in the freezer.... Now that summer is here the generator is hardly on at all so the freezer is empty until late fall when hopefully we get a moose.

Summer ....

After coming back from getting more supplies in Atlin we made trail for 3 weeks and because there is so much sun here at this time and we are outside all the time the generator was not on and so there was NO BLOGGING time. We flew out again to Atlin and shopped in Whitehorse for lots of little things to make repairs, make life easier here and start stocking up for winter supplies. Also had a full week of Doctors, Dentist and eye appointments. Got back here at King Salmon on July 17. The garden is really growing and we had also brought back some Salmon to can which Bryan had caught on a 3 day trip to the River. so We have been real busy. Just wanted to let you know we are safe and happy.
