Annie Oakley Style Bonfire

I got the bright idea of trying to shoot like Annie
Oakley while researching Halloween costumes.

Using the phone as a mirror, we were able to
shoot the old bread machine. Fun!

Piles of driftwood, soon to be covered with snow.

These rocks will be out of sight for quite awhile in the future.

Facing a little SouthWest downriver on the Yukon at the "dock."

I have yet to see Sammy use a roasting stick.

Peanut butter on s'mores. Experiment went well!

Nature's traffic light- red, green, yellow.

What's that moving in the mud puddle?

Blackfish- people eat these whole! Nathaniel grabbed this with his hands.

This area was plugged up by a beaver dam until someone broke that loose.

Walking through the dump on our way back from the dock.

Be glad that pictures do not emit smell-- I'd describe that
mud smelling like rotten fish, garbage, and diapers.

Garbage on the side of the road by the dump.

Clean up, recycling, and containment is probably a necessity here.

Culea, Holly, and Nathaniel walking home on the village's main road.

  1. Interesting pictures as usual! I pictured blackfish to be 'more black.' Are they the ones that swarm under the ice and make it dangerously thin?
    Neat shot of the traffic-light leaves.
    Sad with the garbage. I guess when there was so much snow when we were there, didn't realize it was quite so spread out. Maybe you can suggest with the backhoe there, to dig a pit at least. Or maybe with sea level so low, wouldn't work? You can be teaching students the benefits of a cleaner environment, for health and for nature and for pride of a clean-looking town. Would it help to separate glass, cans, etc. apart from the burnables? Would at least look neater.
