It's that time of year again...

Here we go again! Yummy fish to catch then brine, smoke, filet, can, etc. Mike fished with some friends down in Kenai and got a bunch of reds with a few pinks mixed in.

He stayed up late cleaning them and then got up early and was back in Eagle River by 8:30 am the next day. We went over to the Kaisers' house and started processing.

Smoking:

And making jerky:

Now we have a bunch of fish in cans and in the freezer. I am going to try and wait to have some until after the first snow. But we shall see how that goes...

My little mountain climber

Big milestone this week: Stella climbed her first mountain! She's been carried up mountains before but she climbed it this time! We did Baldy in Eagle River. I am so proud.

Someday this boy will climb a mountain but for now, he'll hitch a ride.

Harp Mountain Hike

Love me some Alaska Runking Girls hikes. Was joined my Jenergy tonight which made it extra fun! Happy dogs and people!
