A week of celebration

First thing last Monday morning, we caught 60 trout!! The numbers are increasing every week. We've upgraded to a bigger cooler to fit them all!

We also hosted a nice family of four from California this week. Here is their son, Baron, catching their dinner... then he was nice enough to catch ours as well.

We had a lovely week of celebration. It was Kevin's 50th birthday on Thursday and we were invited for dinner. Our dear friends, Rafa and Minor, prepared the most delicious Indian curry meal. We don't get a wide variety of ethnic foods here, so to have an Indian was a real treat! Then on Saturday, we had our friend, Tony, who is celebrating his birthday on Monday. Our other friend Violeta joined him... but as you can see, I could not get her to look at the camera, no matter how much I pleaded. I served up some homemade pizza... all veggies were from our garden. Then we had strawberry/rhubarb/blackberry pie and apple crumble with custard for dessert. It's not the standard birthday cake, but no one seemed to mind.

Kevin's been really busy all week installing an electric fence around the two smaller trout ponds to stop the otters from helping themselves. Then, he transformed this trolly into a sand pusher. This little gizmo will be used to clean the ponds. Normally, Kevin and Martin use hoes to scrape the sediment lose from the bottom of the pond into the river. But that's hard work and he thought he'd see if this 'plough' idea might work better. They'll be cleaning the ponds next week so we'll soon see.

    Dave and Krista are a couple from the Pacific Northwest that led overwhelmingly busy lives. 
    As her son Hayden was graduating high school, and daughter Korynn wrapping up college, they realized it was time to slow down. Life was going far too fast . They wanted to take the time to enjoy stress free living with their eight year old son Quinn.
    Having visited Hush Valley Lodge as guests in January of 2016, they decided this would be the exact change they needed.
    In the pursuit of happiness, they partnered with Jo, Peter, Molly, Gary and Dan to make this dream a reality, and are currently the stewards of the magic that is Hush Valley Lodge.
