An eventing drive/hunt






Dad and I took off yesterday around 3 p.m. for a quick evening drive/hunt. We saw lots of whitetail and mule deer. It was a beautiful evening. We also saw lots of sandhill cranes. Hunting season is just starting so you may see lots of pictures like this before the end of hunting season. What I am really looking forward to is the Spring Bear hunt that I am going to be doing all being well.

Rocanville - Target Pactice
















Well hunting season is just around the corner so hence target practice is now. Headed to Rocanville to do a little target practicing and get introduced to a couple of new kitties named "Rat" and "Mouse". Interesting names but that are their names. It was a nice weekend for the outdoors and that is where most of Saturday was spent. Spent a bunch of time with Nuget, the horse, brushing her and boy did she ever love the attention. After we were done brushing her and started to walk away she followed us for some time. So we would have to stop and give her more love and attention and she soaked it all in. She is a beautiful horse and loves to be around people. Loads of fun to spend time with her.

Rider Weekend
















Well this weekend finds me in Regina and yesterday enjoyed the Rider game. Even though we lost to the Argos it was loads of fun to be there and enjoy it. Tomorrow will be spent at the Science Centre and enjoying all that is there and the Imax Theatre. Last night was quite eventful as at about 2 in the morning we woke to the sound of the alarm in the hotel going off. Soon we figured out that it was the fire alarm and so grabbed a couple of things and headed outside. What I found interesting is we are on the top floor and when we left our room everyone was peeking out of their rooms saying "is there a fire". Well Billie and I were on our way quickly down the hallway to the stairwell and getting out of there. I wasn't sticking around to figure out where or if there was a fire. All I knew was the alarm was going off and we were heading out. So once outside, glad it was a warm night, we waited for awhile. Finally the staff told us all was fine and there was no fire. Well then we had no key card to our room as we hadn't thought to grab that and take it with us. So we waited in line to get another one. Lots of others hadn't grabbed their cards either. So it was a disturbed night but got another couple hours of sleep after that. Glad it wasn't a real fire but it did make the heart pound some and I didn't know I could move so fast especially that early in the morning. Here's a few photos from the game.
