I meant to post the punchline photo of the deer eating the bottom cherries the morning after the bear was in there. The next day the bear was back so we went and told the neighbour below us that Yogi was hanging around. I took a handful of cherries for him to try and he was so appreciative, I expected to see him up there next, a dumbfounded look on his face, stems poking out of his mouth.
Meanwhile, the cat went missing during the whole racoon/bear/cherry tree fiasco and finally showed up stinking of skunk. That's been fun. Cat's don't care for vinegar baths in case you were wondering.
Other stuff keeping me busy.... We went to the Nakusp Music Festival for the Saturday line-up. Sister and her husband came through, we stayed in the bee-hive shaped lodgings in New Denver. They were cute. The weather was hot, hot, hot and the bands were great. We went for the Trews and Corb Lund, but really enjoyed Delhi 2 Dublin. They're a Vancouver band that fuses East Indian sound with Celtic and a bit of hip hop and reggae thrown in. Great energy and the gal shreds her fiddle. Tons of fun.
Not much else but work, write and sleep. Just woke up from an hour's nap! Time for a walk, then I'm writing again. 'Til next time....

Hey Dani!
ReplyDeleteWe LOVE Nakusp and the cool hive places in New Denver (though we haven't been inside any of the hives).
You saw Corb Lund? Love him! ....how can you go wrong singing about the Ford pulling out the Dodge (think that's the right order)? The Trews are cool too (introduced to me by your sis).
Sounds like you're having a great summer! I was wondering where your sister was these days - now I know! :)
Hi to everyone at home from Hugo and Cheryl.
