Zooming in on an eagle across the lake | Canada finally opened its border to non-vaccinated people, so I was finally
allowed back there. We celebrated with a trip to Fernie, the only place around where we can get Indian food, my favorite! |
We started our Fernie adventure with a little walk. | Exploring the old town center. |
It was Canadian Thanksgiving that weekend, so we checked out this small festival. | Family selfie |
Buddy & I seem very perky in this picture. |

Swans on Costich Lake in the golden evening light. | |
These three other birds followed the swans around everywhere. Creepers! |
|
That lovely inversion, in the winter it loves to roll in and block out any sunshine. | |
There were 2 weddings held at Timbers Event Center in October. Here are scenes from one of them. | Our first outdoor wedding at our new (unfinished) venue. It looked great! |
Larry built that arbor for Katie's wedding last year. | A pretty sunset as seen from our house |
On our 2-mile walk we like to take around the place. The boys are
looking back to |
|
Mike O! He just finished the first set of stairs in Lodge Bluff Homes. Progress! | |
The three ridiculous musketeers. What they lack in size they make up for in attitude. |
|
On a visit to Larry & Mary Beth's, this is Dude. He's one of Katie
& Caleb's cats. He has the most beautiful eyes. |
|
Gus always wants a cuddle, and I'm happy to oblige! |
|
Woo, I don't think I'd mess with Dude if I were you Buddy. | |
Can you tell I'm holding a treat? Target acquired and locked on. | Lodge Bluff Homes on another crane day, standing up more walls. |
Family trip to Therriault Lakes up Graves Creek Road. This area was
closed for months this |
|
Golden light always gets me. | |
There was a man eating something off to the side, so we could not capture Buddy's attention. | These lakes are beautiful. I've missed being able to visit here. This is Big Therriault Lake. |
Eric walked across these logs and Buddy wanted to follow, but he was afraid to go. | Someone carved a chair into this stump, but the seat was wet. |

This is maximum bravery for Buddy. He REALLY wanted that stick. | |
Little Therriault Lake, so beautiful. |
|
My men, leading the way. |
|
Some local ladies put on a dog-friendly event in town which included a pet
& parent photo booth - complete with dog outfits. Here I am with Cowboy Buddy. |
|
Jeb enjoys hosting Monday Night Football in his new living room. | Our friend and new event coordinator Casey put on a great event for
Halloween at Timbers Event Center. A 2-story bounce house, games, and treats. The coffee shop stayed open late and had a nice crowd. |
Pretty woodpecker on our fence. They have been on our house a lot lately too! | Three eagles on their favorite tree. I took this through the screen on
our screened-in porch, so it isn't super clear. |
Otters! I have never seen an otter here before but we got three of them swimming by one day. | They went down to the fence, got out of the lake, and took off over land from there. So cute! |

Logan & Rebecca's engagement card, 12/17/22 is the big day. |

An article in the local paper featured Timbers Event Center. Here's part of it. | |
Part 2 of the newspaper article. |
|
This is the story that ran in the "Progress" magazine, which is out on newsstands all year long. | |
Also in the "Progress" was this picture of the guys working on
Lodge Bluff Homes. They are trying to move that pile of pre-constructed walls. Heavy stuff! |
