new foal

Our friends horse had her baby after long waiting. Here she is her first time out in the sun. Believe it or not she is only 5 and a half days old in this video. She is going to be a big girl.

Midnight run

Went out to do a mindnight run for smelts Friday night. Brought Aidan with us, he was pretty excited. When we arrived at the river it was like a circus. I don't think I have ever seen that many people out for smelts at one time. It was a finely synchronized motion with both side lined with people. Dip, sweep, lift...Dip, sweep, lift. We caught around 60 or so, which was not bad considering the gauntlet they had to run just to get to where we were. Arrived home at 1:30am with two soakers, a tired boy and smiles on our faces.

Surf last week

Here is the video from last week, busy with work and family to be able to post. It was a good time totally stoked after.
