The trip was great, beat the rush and came back Sunday so as to avoid the rush.
My friend Tom and his wife Shelia, are 2 klicks East of Lumby and about 2 klicks up a mountain, on a paved road in an area of 5 acre lots.
Because of the slope and trees, you can not see the other homes.
They feed the Deer, some of who have Fawns living in the tall grass at the rear of the property. One Doe had 1 Fawn, another had 2 Fawns.
He has only fenced a small portion of the lot for a back yard.
We were havinbg wine out there Friday night, when a loud growl came fron the otherside of the fence, I am not sure which of us made the back door first.
The wild Raspberries and Saskatoonberries are out. The Bears come out in the cool of the night and feed, the next door neighbours fence was down the next day where the Bear went over to raid the berries along his driveway.
But it is so quite up there, you can hear the cattle down in the valley.
No traffic, no sirens.
