camper life is over, for now

A month in the camper is tough, a month in the camper while wondering around Whitehorse is really tough. I would go to work on my bike early in the morning and Isabelle was busy with the kids and their many projects. After work, we would decide what to do and where to go. It sounds easy enough, doesn`t it? Now we have a housitting gig for five weeks and I really appreciate things like, running water, a fridge that works, some space to move freely without stepping on some shoes or a bag of stuff. The poor camper is in rough shape so now we can regroup and fix things up before autumn when we`ll be homeless again. I was given access to a nice little fishing boat for the rest of the season so I`ll try to get that trophy fish photo I always wanted.

Haines Alaska











Summer. It`s a very busy time indeed. It`s my turn to update the blog and I`m way overdue. Let`s start with our weekend in Haines. We went to fish for salmon, and no, I don`t have an amazing picture of us with a trophy salmon, but we had lots of fun anyway. We did have some success fishing while competing with the seals in the river and watching the eagles dropping in for a kill. That place is very alive with marine and wildlife and that`s without the bears. Luckily, we didn`t have to move aside for any bears as they were still in the forest waiting for the peak of the salmon run. I lost the camera and all the fishing gear for a while and the warden had to look at the pictures to find us. Thanks guy. We left Haines on a timeline to make a dinner date which didn`t work at all. On that sunday, we fished in the morning, hiked at the summit (1080 metres), found a good sliding spot, and swam in a river at million dollar falls. We were late for dinner but still managed to sqweeze in some good times with Sandra and Phillip. pics: Isa sliding with sandals, kids at summit, Ani in Tahanne river, kids with dolly varden(me in background).
