This week was our first week of school, and even though it was only 3 days, it felt like forever. Learning the ropes in a new school takes a lot of energy and time. I decided to take a break on Saturday to go berry picking and unwind before Monday.
Above is a picture of our school and playground.
Snowmobiles wait in the mud all summer for the ground to harden, while 4-wheelers and pickup trucks wait under the snow all winter.
The only church on our side of the river.
Swampy grass with the graveyard in the distance.
The sewage lagoon smells really awful on a warm sunny day. This is where people dump their "honey bucket" toilets.
Looking back on the village as we walk towards Fox Lake.
Cranberries and little round black berries that you can also eat.
Some kind or carcass.
Little tiny raspberries.
A plane about to take off- we were picking right by the airstrip.
Looks like another beautiful adventure for you Boo! Can't wait to follow along and hear all about it! What's your address out there? Can I send you anything?
